Thank you both for the response. I'm NTSC. I use Premiere CC 2017, which can still capture AVI. I could then export to mp4. I'll just need to get a firewire port for my PC.

I have a box full of old Hi 8mm video tapes from the early 2000s. I am looking for the highest-quality (not necessarily fastest/easiest/cheapest) method to convert them to digital. Preferred final format would be 1080p mp4 files, so I know I'll have to upscale the video. The video camera has...

I am having a very strange occurrence and am worried to move forward any more with it. First drive I noticed it with was a 2tb Seagate external drive (SATA) that was no longer getting recognized by my desktop. I couldn't find it in Device Manager, Disk Management, and a number of programs to...

The picture at the bottom is what it is going to plug into.

Or even if someone could tell me what that type of connection is referred to as, I am just not sure how to find that type of headphone online. What I'm looking for is a pair of earbud headphones , but instead of a 3.5mm connection at the end, it would be just two exposed wires that would plug...

We have a conference room where each seat has its own speaker, which is connected to an outlet via a (excuse my lack of audio terms knowledge) red and white wire that is slightly exposed at both ends on the tips. I would like to find out if there is a type of headphone that, instead of having a...

I see a link on multithreading OCR now, but don't know nearly enough about computers to be able to make sense out of it. http://knowledgebase.ocrsdk.com/article/794 Right now, I am trying out RamDisk. I created a 10GB disk and put 1,000 of the PDFs I want to OCR in it. I went into ABBYY and...

Interested in the ramdisk option, but unfamiliar with it. Did a little reading up on it. Dataram makes software for my 32GB machine. Is there a better software out there for ramdisks?

I am using AABBYY software to take thousands of pdf documents, OCR them, and make them text searchable. It is a 32-bit program. I am running it on a 64-bit Windows 8.1 machine, 32gb RAM, i7 3.5Ghz. It's the only program I have open (other than services/processes). It is still only using 12% of...

I've got a computer I am wanting to list on ebay. I have already run Duke's Boot and Nuke, and plan to install a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro on the machine. Only problem is, I usually would have used Speccy to pull all the hardware specs off for me to use as I advertised it in ebay. The computer...

I am a wedding videographer. My computer has very rapidly taken a nose dive and I need to replace it ASAP. I will be in the Atlanta GA area today looking for a new one. I've done quite a bit of research on what I'm looking for/need, and come up with a partpicker list, but ultimately I will be at...

I had to downgrade a couple of things, because once I put them in my shopping cart, because the total cost (before rebates) ended up being almost $1900. I've got it down to about $1550 after taxes with this setup: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/m2xH7P
