Guys I don't much about DVD recording so I need some good advise.
I have about 30-35 laserdisc that I would like to record to DVD. This is strictly to allow me to take my LD player out of my HT system and to have one median to play movies and music.
A few questions that came to mind are:
Will I be able to copy the digital audio as it is encoded? These are all Dolby Surround/AC-3 or Digital Sound Stereo. My Sony LD player has optical digital and rca stereo outputs with s-video and composite video outputs.
Is there copy protection to be concerned with?
I would think all of the widescreen versions are non-anamorphic. Is there anyway to make them anamorphic when copying?
What do I need to look for in a PC DVD Recorder and keep my expense to a minimum?
Do I need any particular software such as PowerDVD?
How will I connect my LD player to my computer? My soundcard is a Creative SB Live! Value. Will I need a different soundcard?
Thanks for any help, opinions, suggestions, recommendations, etc.
