I am attempting to capture images from a mini-rhizotron on my computer. The mini-rhizotron sends an output video signal via S-- video, which we can view on a TV. We are looking to upgrade our computer interface from an ancient parallel port adapter to view and capture images on a computer to something that works via USB. Apple or PC compatibility does not matter - we have both.

The desired setup would be mini-rhizotron (S-video) - TV (S-video) - translator (S-video to USB) - computer. Or remove the TV and use the computer as the monitor.

Any suggestions of what type of hardware and software would work?

Thanks in advance for any help.
