8mm tapes can only be viewed with the aid of an 8mm player. One's best bet to watch 8mm tapes in this case is to purchase another 8mm player that is not broken.
in tape size yes, but D8 takes all tapes, Hi8 only Hi8 and 8mm and 8mm only 8mm tapes
no, dv tapes are newer and come in 3 sizes, whereas 8mm tapes are all the same size, roughly that of a music casette
No, the trv260 does not play back old 8mm and hi8 tapes. The original manual states that you can record on these tapes, but that you cannot playback Hi8 tapes that were previously recorded. And if it cant playback hi8 it cannot playback the earlier 8mm.
The software asperasoft will convert 8mm film to DVD. There are several other software applications that also convert 8mm film to DVD including globalsafe and video2dvd.
You need video editing software and a way to get the images into the computer. As an 8mm camcorder has only an RCA Composite output, this will require you to have a comparable input on your computer. You use the camcorder to play the tapes and input them into the computer. It will be necessary to purchase and install a composite video input card.
It is .323".
Either use an 8mm projector to view them on the 'big screen' - or - get them converted to DVDs or VHS video.
Answer tape ideaIm not an expert, but check out this idea & expand on it.....Change your 8mm tape to standard vhs tape by using one of those "All in one transfer machines".It changes tapes, film, & cards to vhs tape & then watch on your vcr. Just a thought.
Unfortunately, there are no adapters that will allow you to watch an 8MM tape on a VHS player. What you will need to look for is a camcorder that plays 8MM tapes; from there, you can easily hook up the camcorder to the television.
Hi8 should be backward-compatible with all cameras that use Video8.
