Hi,
I'm want to digitize some old Video8 footage so it is on my Mac and I can edit it and make a DVD from it.
However, all I have is the Video8 tapes and not the video camera.
Firstly, I need to know how to play these back, I am told that you could place them in a 'carrier' cassette which would allow them to be played back through a VCR. Again, I don't know where to get hold of theses 'carrier' cassettes.
Also, I would like to know the best method of connecting a VCR to my Mac.
If anyone could recommend the hardware and software I need to capture the Video8 tapes I would be really grateful. I don't need editing or DVD creation software because I already have Final Cut and DVD Studio.
Thanks for any advice.
