Step 3: Make a backup from VHS tapes to computer files.
You need to tell Easy VHS to DVD for Mac the length of the video you are capturing. This information is used to approximate the amount of storage that will be needed; it can also be used to automatically terminate the recording if you wish.
a. specify the recording quality.
Easy VHS to DVD for Mac lists two types of recordings. Standard recording uses a variable bit rate (VBR) to capture video at an average 4 Mbps. High recording extends the average VBR to 6 Mbps with a maximum capture rate of 8 Mbps. Both recording methods capture the video in MPEG-2 format, the same format used by DVDs.

When you’re ready, press the big red ‘Start Recording’ button. You can also choose to automatically stop recording after the time you specified earlier.
When the video transferred from your VHS tapes to Mac as MPEG-2 video files, you can select one of the following options:
1. Send to toast (making DVDs); 2. Edit with iMovie; 3. Send to QuickTime player.
