Analogue to Mac

Hi all,

Been transferring my DV stuff onto my mac, but now want to transfer all those old Video8 tapes and VHS-C tapes that I have.

Any idea what the best way is.

My mac is a powerbook G4, last machine before the intel macs came along....

Cheers,

Kieron

One of these is an option

Converts to DV, so you can edit as normal.

Or, use a DV camcorder which does AV to DV conversion.

Re: Analogue to Mac

Or buy the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid (DTT +Analog TV) with analog input for £95 from the Apple store and have a TV and PVR thrown in! Comes with the Elgato Eye TV software and has S-VHS and composite inputs (as well as a TV aerial input).
