It has Analog video and S-VHS in an records 320x240 at 30fps, more than adequate for VCR stuff. Add the that a NuBus Jackhammer card and a 7200 rpm UltraWide SCSI drive and you have a brilliant AV platform. Run 7.6.1 or 8.1 to get the best, Apple Video player will do basic recording to QT then throw those into iMovie on an OS 9.1/OS X machine (IIRC you have a 9.2 G3 don't you?) and you have the lot sorted :). -- Mark Benson Vintage Macs List Nanny aka silicon_valley_pirate_uk (Yahoo!
