What to use to get video on comp?

[dario03]

My uncle already has Adobe Premiere elements 1.0 but no hardware to get the video onto the comp. What would be the best thing to transfer video from a vcr to the comp to be used in premiere for under $50?

A capture card would be what you're looking for:
Buy TV Tuner Card, PC TV Tuner, PCI Tuner Card, USB Tv Tuner, USB TV, TV Device at Newegg.com

A TV tuner would probably work as well

Yeah I was looking there earlier but what one would be good. Anybody have experience with one? There seems to be a lot of mixed reviews on all of them.

Also does anyone know if dazzle digital video creator 8 works with premiere? And does anyone know where I could get the driver for it? My uncle has the dazzle 8 hardware but he has lost the software and serial key and you can't download anything from dazzle without the serial.

Get a usb dazzle, and record the video onto the computer with pinacles software. Then use adobe premiere elements to edit the footage and do whatever with it. I know that works, cause i use that setup, all you need to do is find a dazzle under 50 dollars and your set.

Well my uncle does have a dazzle 8 that we couldn't get to work. Though I just got it to work so I guess I'll do it that way. Will the newer dazzle stuff work directly with premiere elements?
