One other way to get analog video into digital is to use a Sony PC-100 or certain other mini-dv camcorders which has the capability to pull vhs via regular RCA/S-video cabling onto its digital tape, giving you a no-loss copy to transfer from, to your Mac and into iMovie, or otherwise. It's pretty fast with my g4-733 destop using fw but I can only imagine using my Wallstreet or a Lombard.
I used an older Hi-8 Sony for years and will soon transfer all that video to digital using a Hi-8 deck I kept when I sold the camcorder, then I will sell the deck. Maybe I will put it out onto dvd, but some is not worth saving, making the process one to procrastinate on.
