My friend has put together a 10 minute compilation of te best clips from our rugyb season, we filmed a few games and have put together a 10 minute film of the best tries etc, now he wants to add music over the top so how can he do it. Its a VHS tape.

The easiest way is to capture the video through a tv card into a computer, edit it with premier, dvstudio etc and then output it back to video tape with the tv-out (or in a worst case scenario if that doesn't work properly, burn it to vcd, stick it in a dvd player and tape it that way through scart).

Failing that, if it's a stereo video I think you can dub over just the mono track (or stereo track) with a different audio source (it's called overdubbing or something). Your video instructions should be able to tell you if this is possible.

Mods can i move this please to the general forum, its not exactly about hardware as such I feel and its not gonna get more replies in here.

I did think about putting it in the general when i created it and thought maybe its best there as its not about hardware but how to add sound to a tape.:) :searchme:
