ok, I am new to video capture. My Brother-in-law was on the news and I want to take the news story from my Tivo Premier 4 DVR and import it to my MBP5,3.
I believe that there is a composite out (RWY) on the back of the Tivo and also with HDMI out to tv.
Can I presume that the HDMI is digital and the composite is analog?
I would like to use the firewire input to the MBP?
What program do I use to capture it and write the file to the HD? I have about 400Gb on the drive. Does handbrake do this or should I use imovie or some other program? I understand from reading other posts that this must be recorded on the fly.
I also have a sony DVMCDA box to convert analog to digital either way if this helps. Can I unplug the HDMI cable from the tv and use a HDMI to firewire cable? Thanks in advance.
MBP5,3 8gb ram, 500gb drive mavericks os.
Hmmm did I forget anything?
