Pilots onto a Video Tape

Does anyone know how to take a RealVideo episode of Jesus VS Santa or Jesus VS Frosty and record it onto a video cassette? These are the only episodes I do not have on tape. I'm sure there's a way. I have a sound card with numerous connections. If anyone has figured out how to do this, let me know.

Your Sound Card's not gonna help you when it comes to visuals. What you're gonna need is a video card with RCA TV-OUT connectors, and a good sound card. Then, just feed the output from the video card into the VIDEO IN on your VCR, then take the output of your soundcard and feed it into the AUDIO IN on your VCR. Then you're set.

I doubt you'd use only the sound card. Likely you'd want to record with the VCR while playing the episode, having the video card and sound card hooked up to their respective places.

actually the easiest way is to do what i do

trident makes a video card called the 9685 w/TV output (estimated retail value $30) you buy this and replace your existing video card

the video card comes with a RCA cord that can plug into the TV input jack in the back of your TV

press a few buttons and your TV magically becomes a monitor

well then this part is obvious but just throw a VCR on there play the episode set it on full screen and tape away

on a final note i would suggest against this because you are severly downgrading the quality of the episode unless the episode is a very high quality RealVideo

A couple of my friends have videotapes of SoXmas but they are of such poor quality (at least 10th generation copies on SLP mode) that the QuickTime movie I have is 50% better - even when blown up to full screen. ---
