Video capture for a G5? [View all]

Hi

I have a dual processor g5 Powermac tower running Leopard 10.5.8 and I've got a large box of VHS tapes, old family movies etc I need to capture to digital.

Does anybody know what the best not-too-expensive device for this would be? I've looked around the web and haven't found a whole lot, and some I've found are intel Mac only

Thanks

I'm not sure about your Mac, but I use Elgato from Apple although I'm sure it's available elsewhere. freshwest May 2012 #1

Sorry. Haven't been able to find a Mac compatible option from other vendors. freshwest May 2012 #3

No, there really isn't. I'm shutting down out of this except for a few things I do often. freshwest May 2012 #7
