    Plz Confus_ed,
    You didnt tell where to connect the S_video connector cable.
    You posted an image of it. I ask u but you dont answer me.
    I have this cable but dont connect it.
    Heres my cable

    The left end goes to Asus TV FM card,the other 3 at the right(red-yellow-white) match with this

    (scart goes to video player)
    So, the point is WHERE do I put the S-VHS import?
    My TV has a socket for it and as I said I connected it there, without result.But is this the right socket? on TV?

    Well, case solved...
    I had voice, but didnt set it right from the program!
    Could happen to anyone...
    The S-video connector was not necessary. I use just the cables which are in the 2 images I posted in my previous msg.

    Now I have other matters. I need 100MB for just 6 minutes! Is there any way to compress the space? (without losing quality)
    Which is the best program which u suggest me?

    And one more point. This pc has just dvd-r, so i cant burn dvd discs. But I have another one pc with dvd-rw. Is there any cable to connect the 2 pc in order to transfer files?

    I doubt if you will recieve help and if you do recieve help then I shall be amazed.
    You need to network the computers. So what type of computers are you trying to network? Win98, WinXP, etc.?

    Explanations will be needed.

    I can't believe I am 86.

    Why u doubt? Is everybody ignorant here?
    I want the right cable(at least 3-4 meters) to connect 2 PCs. Not internet. Just in order to tranfer data (video files, many GBs) from one to the other.
    They told me about this cable, which goes to ethernet ports of each pc. Is it right? Do I need any settings or programs? (Win XP pro SP2).

    Hey "King"!
    Theoretically you can connect 2 computers with an ethernet crossover cable. I've had no luck in doing it though.
    HP Laptop 6830s with 4 Gbs ram and a 250gb HDD I run Vista business 64bit. But I have some old computers too.

    Set a static IP for both PCs (Same subnet), and turn off the Windoze firewall and away you go. (Remember to have some stuff shared though!)

    Works every time.

    USB? Never heard of such. Maybe you can maybe you can't.
    There are smart people here and well I do not know much about computers I am learning, That is why I come here. That and if I ever need any help.

    Read there. That person was trying to connect two computers using a crossove cable so this should prove helpful. And there is a very detailed explanation in a post there so try that.

    Well, I used a crossover wire and put on SP2 in the second pc. Now its ok!
    I transfer 3GB in 5 minutes.

    For video encoding I use CynerLink Power Director 3, which gives me 1GB for 1 hour of video, with same picture's quality(mpeg-1, I also tried mpeg-2 which needs more space, but i saw no different result).
    Does that VirtualDub offers something better?

    Other than being free? Depending on what encoding you want to use.

    If you plan to use your video in standalone VCD or DVD players, than MPEG and MPEG2 is a safer bet. There are standalone CD/DVD players that supports MPEG4 encoding as well.

    Guides abound at videohelp.com for those that want to figure it out on their own.
