Okay, I bought me a Zenith VCR-DVD combo which burns DVDs and records
on VHS http://www.zenith.com/sub_prod/product_Display.asp?cat=&id=1046
and I bought me a Canopus ADVC 110 converter which will convert from
VHS tape or from camcorder tape to DVD. http://www.canopus.com/products/ADVC110/index.php
Now, suppose I borrow home movies from a friend to transfer to DVD.
Once I burn the DVD on my Zenith from their tape, is it "as digital as
it's going to get," and that's it? Can I just make myself a copy with
a DVD burner on my own Mac, and have the footage in as good a quality
as there is? Or do I have to run all the material directly onto hard
drive through the converter to have really good quality? What I'm
asking is
1. Is there a difference in quality when the Zenith saves me several
steps in converting material direct to digital?
2. Is there any generational loss if I make a DVD from another DVD,
since one is a copy but they're both digital?
Thanks for any abilities to explain this in terms understandable to my
mind.
Cori
