The best option would be to use some analog to digital bridge, like Dazzle
Hollywood, to bring the video onto your Lombard. Then, you could be able to
edit it in iMovie. Finally, using Toast, with a CD-RW, you could write those
movies as VCDs, that are playable in almost every domestic DVD player, as
well as in all CD-ROM drive on various computers.

If a digital bridge is not an option, there are cheap USB digitizer, but
they support a much lower resolution.
