If the unit you have is a DVD recorder then that would be by far the easiest solution to the problem.
Next easiest would be plugging the unit you have into a separate DVD recorder (either one you buy just for this or one you borrow)
Less easy still is using a video capture device and a PC to transfer the material to PC and burn it to DVD.”
quite if the OP has a dvd recorder then that would be a neat solution. though they probably don't.
personally i bought one of those
easycap things for like a fiver and i've been impressed with the results.
that having been said i could be classed as an expert at this sort of thing i guess.
i would say it depends on the scenario. if it's one video and it's your wedding then pay to have it done professionally.
the method via your computer is not difficult, and if you can't do it you are only 6 quid in the hole.
after that you are looking at a dedicated hardware dvd recorder.
