[chbot] Video DVD

[Marshland Engineering]

I've been tidying up recently and found my old DVD camcorder with associated
DVD's and an earlier recorder that uses tapes.

I know you can spend hours editing stuff and was wondering if anyone here has
some good advice. 

1: Suggestions on a Video to digital converter hardware for the old tape
player.
2: I'm not sure why but the DVD have MOV files and there seems to be many
duplicated clips in the various files.   
3: Any suggestions on auto chapter software. Doing it manually takes so much
time.   

I have spent may hours on this subject before hut never came out with a really
good solution. 

Hopefully I can find one now. 

Thanks Wallace.
