 El Gato Video capture November 21, 2009
Garomir
This device seems to be well worth the money. I have used this a few times but it was simple to install and get working. The video quality is fine but I didnt try anything but video from my camera. I will edit this review as I use the product more.
New life for old video, and painless too. November 11, 2009

This is a usb device that slides into a port on the mac. The software takes you through each video capture step by step. Prior to recording (I'm digitizing vhs videotapes) you get a good look at image quality and confirm that the sound is working, too. I usually have to adjust the tracking on my old vcr to get the best possible playback. You use the controls on your vcr for that.
Just name the file, optionally click a box for recording duration, and away you go. When you are done, you can trim what you don't want from the beginning and end of the file.
Then the software asks what you want to do with the file. I run mine through imovie, but there are other choices, too. Then it works some voodoo on the file and you're done.
Our new macbook pro has plenty of processor power to take the incoming video and audio streams without any hiccups. This is a great little accessory for a mac that lets you take video that you used to watch and enjoy and put it in a new and easily editable digital video format.
The old tapes look great on the ipod touch screen and not too bad on the macbook.
 Beautiful device, incomplete description November 4, 2009

Beautiful device, very well designed and seemingly easy to use.
But beware that it works ONLY WITH INTEL CORE 2 DUO PROCESSOR. Older MACs with Power G4 are not compatible to this device. Nothing, except compatibility description on product box itself warns you of this fact.
Think a specific mention to this fact for a "Mac compatible device" would save considerable time for customers.
 Very good video capture device November 3, 2009

Bought the Elgato Video Capture Device from Amazon primarily to pull 8mm video from my old non-digital camcorder into an iMac PC for editing purposes and to put the old family videos on DVD -- that old 8mm camcorder won't keep running forever! The Elgato device works great -- setup was a breeze, just pop the included DVD into the drive and it's ready to use in 3 minutes. Hookup to my camcorder was simple, with step-by-step directions for video, audio, etc. The included software lets you ready the captured video for iMovie on the Mac, or for uploading to YouTube if that's what you prefer. All in all, a very cool, intuitive way to get analog video from various sources into your PC for editing or archiving. Only quibble I have with it is that it ships with scant documentation, but once you use it a while, it seems sufficiently intuitive that you barely miss it. Glad I bought it.

This product is very easy to use and the results are excellent provided the tapes are in a reasonable shape.
I can highly recommend this product for use with Mac computers.
