As far I as know, using a VTR/VCR designed for the NTSC broadcast system
will not record to high enough resolution to use even on an IBM PC screen
at high res.  It limits you to about 300 by 200 pixel resolution unless
you have an exceptional VTR/VCR.  Most people that I have heard of doing this
use special recorders.  I don't know whether these are custom built or modified.The bandwith of signal of a VTR/VCR isn't high enough unless you do things like
increase the speed of tape and/or the head rotation.
