How do I transfer 8mm video from camcorder to my Mac hard drive?

My 1997 Sony camcorder uses 8mm cassettes. The connection line has only a video (yellow) and 1 audio (black) lead. The cable I have plugged in to the "IN" outlet of my Mac G5 has 3 leads (yellow, red, and white).

I connected yellow to yellow and black to red, assuming I could use either the red or the white lead. My computer doesn't recognize anything. I used Finder and iMovie to attempt to view the connection, and still nothing.

You can't plug it directly in, you will need a "capture device". More than likely, you can bring the camcorder in at an electronic store near you and they can point you to the correct device you will need for the proper transfer.

Oh yes, and the video capture device will have the video (yellow) and audio (black) plugs you need to plug your camcorder into it with a USB port to plug into your MAC G5.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
