I've spent the past week or so trying to make a DVD from an old VHS tape of home movies shot behind-the-scenes of the 1988 Lucasfilm adventure, Willow. The experience reminded me of a few things I hadn't thought about in a while (e.g. I am a huge Willow nerd) and taught me a few new things (e.g. I am a well-connected huge Willow nerd). The tips below are primarily intended to save me some trouble the next time I want to make a DVD, but maybe somebody else out there will find them useful, too.
