This is exactly what I was looking for! You plug an old camcorder, vcr or other video player with RCA cables/S-video and you then plug the vidbox into your computer. Then, using the software, you capture the video as you play it on the camcorder or video player. I have already converted 3-4 8mm tapes into digital.mov files.
