Subject: digitizing VHS video

Dear MMM-people:

I read with interest the articles in the most recent issue of ACM.
I have a personal interest in this field, specifically in digitizing
video.  I am looking for the necessary hardware (computers, black boxes,
etc) and software (off the shelf or packaged with hardware) to take 
output from a VCR (VHS), digitize it, and store it in a binary data file
on a computer hard disk for later transmission using tcp/ip network
lines.  Upon reciept of the data, I would like to reverse the process.
Can you identify any manufactures of such products, or perhaps you could
point me to someone you know who is knowledgeable in this area.  I
would very much appreciate any help you can give me in this matter.
Thank you!
