Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: YES

This program let me use my firewire digital video camera as a LIVE VCR input device to my eMac so I could record DIRECTLY to the eMac from my regular old VCR!

Now I don't have to purchase an expensive external video input device! This records both audio and video and is configurable!

The only downside (and I can get around it) is that the final file size is too large to import it into iMovie without some kind of DV split-er program.

Now if only it would split the output files into smaller clips when it saved the file then it would be fantastic! (like 9 minutes so it will import into iMovie, or a user configurable lenght.) My DV camera is a JVC GR-D90. Thanks for the program! Also it would be nice to have a simple button for "Capture Now" instead of having to use the drop-down menu. Also a help file would be much appreciated. This is a beta so I understand that it is a work in progress (including the help file, I assume as well.) But for a beta... WOW !
