External Video Players

[tinz4]

Hello all!
I have a whole heap of Digital 8 handycam video tapes and I was wanting to do some editing with them. The thing is my camera no longer goes and Ive heard that there are some external players that you can play these with. My question is what are these external players called and am I able to connect them to my computer?

Hopefully someone can help!

Thanks
Roi

I found a few here, if this is your format: http://www99.epinions.com/t-hi-8-video-player

But the prices may have you rethinking that idea. Most decks that play back camcorder videos are similarly expensive.

Alternately, you may find a used Digital 8 camera on Ebay or other sources that would likely be cheaper. Or check you local advertisement papers or 'garage sales'.
