My mom has some old videos of the kids that you play on a projector. She would like to be able to watch them again. I was wondering how much it costs to have someone convert them to DVD?

it would cost more than going to a garage sale on a saturday and picking up an 8mm projector for $5.

LOL, you'll still need a projector to play the film.
