    Hi, I would like to be able to capture some video from a VHS tape into the computer. I have at my disposal:

    Panasonic GS320
    Panasonic DVC80

    My video card:
    http://www.msicomputer.com/product/vga/vga_detail.asp?model=TV5200-VTDF128

    And of course a VCR with regular RCA a/v in/out

    Any suggestions?

    Ok, I made some progress.. I got the VCR hooked up to the DVC80, and the DVC80 goes out to the computer via firewire.. I can go to "my computer" and for the camera when I click on it, it shows the video that's playing from the VCR so it's definitely going into the computer. The question now is - how do I capture this to a file?
