I want to know an easy & inexpensive way to transferring my VHS videos to CD/VCD/DVD/hard disk. I have seen Pinnacle which is expensive for home use.

Any detailed help ?

I have tried with Pinnacle PCTV stereo card on a friend's PC. I think it will cost you Rs. 2000-2500. If that is expensive then I do not know of any other solution.

Get some cheap local brand TV tuner card for around 1000 rupees or so. Encoding can be done using software. This is the cheapest option I can think of.
