Blatman Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I *could* transfer any video, in any format, to any digital media, if I was shown how, and then given permission to use the machinery. Sadly, I will never get permission......... glad t see u r still talking to me I can't imagine any reason why I wouldn't. I do have a sense of humour, you know..
