Thank you all for so many fine suggestions. The best solution for my assignment, however, is another route. I will simply record a DVD for each tape. I will clone a couple more sets (three total) of the DVDs. One is for my client’s kids to play frisbee. One is for his desk at home. One is for his safe deposit box. When his 15 year old wants to cut some of the material together, putting all of us out of work, they will use the contemporary version of DVDxDV Pro. Steve Martin raved about it at the LAFCPUG meeting last week. Why have a spooky QT Movie which might be out of sync sitting on a hard drive for years? So now I am happy. I do have another problem which I will make a new post about but life is like that. Thanks to Ken Stone as well.
