Do you have a Hi-8 camera? I have a DVD recorder, but I would need the camera to play the tape, than I could tap into the a/v outs of the camera into my dvd burner. Let me know.

Tim, I am off Sunday. And might be able to work it into my schedule, as I am during some work on the car then. How long is the video? I bought this burner like 6 months ago and have yet to use it, But i think it burns at the pace it is played. So depending on how long it is would determine the length of the buring process. I guess, I should read the manual And its portable so I can bring it with me.

Just looked up the "Dazzle" thing on Best Buy. It's like $50.

So...Ryan, what time you free in the afternoon on Sunday?
