Staples is where I buy mine! Also, Google a program devede. I found a TomBoy note I wrote (back in 2009 I think) where I said I was using it. I had gotten a missing episode of a show I used to record back then from a friend & the lip-sync was way off. I'm my note I had written devede was able to correct that & do some nice title page work.
I'm afraid I don't do as much recording as back then, and with DVD+RWs (from Staples) my Magnavox DVD recorder does well enough for me. On Mar 14, 2016 9:34 PM, "James E.
