I have the M680 with the ATI mobility x700 (128MB),
2 GB RAM and 80 GB hard drive
Also have Vegas Video 4
I have a number of old HI 8mm tapes I would like to move to DVD format and do some editing along the way.
My knowledge is pretty basic on how to do this. I know I can use Vegas to do the editing, but how do I get the video from the 8mm camcorder to the laptop for editing?
My connections on the ATI mobility x700 seem to be limited to IEEE 1394 4-pin port and a S-video outjack (since the s-video connection is labeled as an "out jack" I am assuming this means I can't import video via the s-video connection).
My camcorder (source for the Hi8 mm video) is an old Sony TR101 with regular video RCA type connections, although there is an s-Video connection.
Greatly appreciate any help that can be provided!
