I don't know? I have the program but have only copied DVD to DVD; I never really needed to move something form VHS to DVD. I will give it a shot and see what happens. If it turns out good do you what me to go ahead and burn you a copy?
Funny thing was when I bought the Challenge tapes I had forgotten I no longer had a VCR... DUH!!!
Daniel

Challenge tapes
Hello --
My son Mike Kramer, who produced the ESPN shows and still has the B roll, put those three-tape sets together for a Challenge reunion at Carlisle a few years ago. He provided some to NCM to sell. You must have scored the last set. Or two thirds, anyway. I don't know if he has any complete sets left or whether he has any singles, but I'll try to find out asap.
They are excellent first-gen duplicates off the original B roll. We have been thinking about making a DVD. Maybe now's the time.
You can reach Mike at mike.kramer@eds.com. Or hit me at indianavette@com and I'll get you connected.

Just happened to catch wind of this thread via another thread. Depending on how any of you feel about the tapes and what not ("trust issues"), if you send me the tapes I can have them professionally put out to DVD, along with any restoration that might need to be done to the original VHS footage. Cost would be FREE. My buddy is the guy that does all the old ESPN Canada transfers for their old hockey reels. He also does other sports teams old stuff. He might even be getting business from ESPN here stateside, but I'm not sure. Anyways...let me know...
