Ok. I know this thread is old… BUT I am also trying to transfer Hi8 tapes to DVD. I have a stand alone DVD burner, but it does not have the red, yellow, white ports, just the ethernet port. I am looking for a friend who has a camera that will play my tapes. I also own a newer Digital video camera. Can I use my Digital camera as a converter? ie; play Hi 8's on the one camera, record on the digital and THEN transfer to iMac? Dear heavens. This is so complicated but I'm determined to do it myself….
