Re: Using an *40 AV to edit VHS video

To be honest, I really don't remember, since it wasn't very important at the time. I was quite happy to continue running OS 8.1 on this machine, but I have thought recently that running 7.5 or 7.6 might be a little better from a performance standpoint. Too many other Mac (and non-PC) projects on th

Thanks for the reply I use Fusion Recorder now. It seems to be OK, I was just wondering if there was something else available. The last time I tried to reformat and partition the 4GB drive, the OS complained that the drive itself was too large. On OS 8.1, there were no problems. I'll have to

using an 840AV for VHs video editing

Thanks for all the help. Until I can get all the software that I need per your recommendations, I'll try with what's on there already. At the moment it's Apple Video Player, which I'm guessing might be the program that was installed to do editing. Unfortunately, when I try to run it, I get an err

I've got an 840av with a Video Spigot AV. I'm running 8.1, but I have problems reliably getting the video to come out of the Spigot's outputs. It seems to change depending on what app I'm using, then needs a reboot to make it work properly again. Would changing to 7.5.5 help this? The last time I

Only if the VCR or camcorder has an S video jack already on it. There are devices that convert composite video to S and vice-versa, but most of these are cheap and do a very poor conversion. - Original Message - From: "Jim Pendarvis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Quadlist" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> S
