This is a general question, related to meshing ImgBurn w/ commercially produced digitized copies of home movies on VHS.
I have a 2-3 hour VHS home movie that I need digitized. Ultimately, I want the content (a single Gawd-awful long recording from my sister-in-law to my wife on her birthday) on a DVD. However, it is longer than 2 hours, which eliminates walking into a retail digitizing service at Walgreens or Walmart. Online companies (e.g., DigitalPickel, ArchivalCompany) make open-ended offers. They can handle anything, apparently.
What I’d like to do is get a digitized version of the content in some sort of format that I can then write to a dual-layer DVD using ImgBurn. I’ve done that successfully numerous times in backing up existing DVD’s. But, their file format is VOB, BUP, etc. No commercial service offers that. They offer : “uncompressed video to external hard drives in AVI, Quicktime ProRes or MPEG4 (H.264) formats.” Are any of those useable as input to ImgBurn?
