Um, wouldn't it be simpler to just record with the camcorder and transfer the video to your MacBook later?

iMovie. At least the older, good version (6 HD) could. I don't know about the newer ones.

The newer, better version (09) can too, AFAIK.

That's a core feature of iMovie, kjecs.

I'm sure there's something by Cucusoft or another spamming outfit that will come highly recommended by this time tomorrow.

Thanks for the replies on this post folks. I have given up on the capture part because apparently my version of imovie 08 won't do it. So, i decided to just dump the video from the dvd cam to the laptop Guess what no drivers for sony handy cam DCR-DVD610, so far have not been able to find. Next option and adaptor ring 8cm to 12cm after many search attempts i have been unable to find one anybody know where I can purchase one? I failed to mention in my 1st post i am new to MAC.
