Convert vhs to digital?

Has anyone had any luck converting analogue (camcorder) to digital and burning it to disc. ive tried pinnacle tv card (ok for watching telly) ive now got a pinnacle dazzle converter and studio 9 .you can watch video ok but when converting quality is poor at best and sound loses sync
Answer
Try changing the resolution or encoding to avi tthen converting it later on. encoding to mpeg or divx takes a lot of cpu and it gets messed up if you do it on the fly.
