Does anyone here have equipment to digitize VHS tapes?

I recently happened upon a VHS of Leftover Salmon from Hookahville 8:30:97
Anyone want to get this digital for me?

I have the means but it is a pain.  And the quality is directly associated with the VCR used.  I have one with an S-Vid output and I have a A/D converter (hollywood video something or other) which isn't too bad, but generally isn't too good either.  Plus, for the audio, I have to wonder if there's something better.  I suppose the aud track could be overwritten with a better source, but I'm sure my audio/video editing skills are more ancient and it'd take me a long time.  I'm not familiar with high end software, but can do a decent job with iMovie.

However, if you just want the video digital and you'll take what you can get, I can do it pretty quick.  I digitized all my vhs recordings from back in the day and it wasn't too bad, but then again, I didn't have to mess with the sound and I wasn't a stickler for quality (probably because it was shot with a camera that took full size vhs tapes and the quality wasn't the best to start with)

I can too, but I have a long list of tapes that take precedent......and those I probably won't get to till this summer.

I'm not worried about the audio.  Once I get the video digital I can do that myself.  I just don't own a tape deck

Well, I can digitize the vhs, but I don't have a great player or anything.  It'll just be from whatever I've got.  Something purchased after 2004, but still pretty cheap I'm sure.

PM me if you're interested.

I'm not even sure how the quality of the video is either.  I just got this tape.  I don't have a VCR to check it out but I'm pretty sure the video quality is watchable or the person who have never given it to me
