You could play around with 8.1's Apple Video Player to capture short film
clips of no more than 7 minutes 30 seconds (2 Gigs HD space) from VHS/DVD
player (or TV tuner) via RCA jacks. But for full length capture you'll need
to upgrade to 9.1 and install video editing software like Adobe Premiere 6
- 6.5, max the RAM, add a video or capture card.
