Super 8 is an old home movie film format. Based on the info provided, there 
are 6 frames per inch. Not sure about the frame-rate, but I imagine it's 
somewhere around 20 - 30 per second.

most likely, he's using some tool to input the frames into his PC for 
encoding.

We had several Super 8 home movies when I was a kid. Our local library also 
carried Super 8 movies before the advent of video tape.

GOD, I'm old (-;
