Two questions. Tapes to MP3 & Webcams

Rattlebrain · 12-11-2004, 01:05 PM

Does anyone know how to or what to use to copy casset tapes to your PC in MP3 format. I have conected a walkman to the mic input and can record a short wav file but I want to record a whole tape so I can tranfer it to CD.

Next question is about webcams. How well do they work? I have never even seen one in action. I thought about one to talk to relatives with. I do have broadband. Is hard to get set up? I have a deaf daughter and thought it would be nice for her to talk to her grandma via internet since a phone is usless and she is not old enough yet to use a teletype.

Thanks!!

Re cassette tape to CD, it's very much the same as LP to CD . Here is a good site to get you started. Post back if you have specific questions;
