Hi Becky.
I've done a few projects that involved capturing 8mm tape to a PC. I used a
Sony D-8 camcorder, which will play the analog tape and convert on the fly
to digital. The digital (DV) signal traveled through firewire to an Adobe
Premiere-equipped PC, but the XP Movie Maker application would also handle
the capture duty. What you need is something between your camera and a
properly equipped computer, something with RCA/S-video analog inputs on one
side and a firewire port on the other. If that's what your ADSTech device
has then perhaps you could explain how it's connected, and to what, and
what software you have for digital video capture. If it's Premiere you got
him for Christmas, have you set it up for DV capture in the Project Settings?

Hi all~
I can tell you're a wealth of info. I've tried searching the
archives, but unable to find any info on 8mm analog conversion.
We are very new to this - my son is very interested in making movies
so we got him this for Christmas. However, we didn't want to spend
the money initially on a DV camera, so we're trying to make this work
with our Sony 8mm until we see how he's going to stick with this. We
purchased the ADS TEch converter and hooked it to the camera and
computer. But, we are not able to capture anything. None of the
video comes up in the window.
Anyone else experience this? We've tried the troubleshooting ideas
from the manual. Just thought I'd get your thoughts. Thanks in
advance....
Becky
