I've been doing this for the past few months, let me say it's more work than I thought it was. At least for what I'm doing some of the tapes I'm working with aren't in good condition and I've had to be very careful about rewinding and ffing the tapes because I've had a couple snap and I've had to splice them back together.
I have a DVD recorder and a VCR connected to each other and to a TV. Push play on VCR, hit record on the DVD -R . I don't know if it would work with a handy cam.
