Certainly I agree with dokool's answer.

I would also like to add that a simple solution if you can't get your computer to properly output to a VCR or lack the output hardware is to just burn a DVD. Then hook up a DVD player to a VCR. Play the DVD and hit record on the VCR.

Provided you have a DVD-R drive, anyway

most newer dvds play vcd discs. You can make a vcd instead of a dvd, no dvd burner needed. Then play it on the dvd player hooked to a vcr like narcted suggested.

This is most likely for entry to an AMV contest that only allows VHS submissions...If it is then VCD are a no go =\

umm...I meant play it on your dvd player and record it onto a vhs tape. That sounds pretty compatible for a vhs entry to me

does Svideo do audio?

No, S-video only does... well, video.

It's not hard to find an adapter for the audio, though.

This picture may be more confusing than it is helpful, but at least it's pretty to look at:

A VCR would go in place of what they call an "A/V Receiver".
