Newbie Help?!?

I have some stuff I want to move from my TV to my mac. I tried going through my video camera, but apparently I needed a VCR.

Is there anyway I can plug my computer into the TV directly and then move it from there.

Thanks for any advice.

Where is the stuff in mention currently stored?

Ditto - do you have one of the Mitsubishi's that had built-in hard drive for use as DVR or something like it? If this is the case, we probably need the model # of the TV (or other device if your movies are not actually on the TV) to give you correct advice.

It's just on a Time Warner DVR box.

Check this website, it has info on using your mac to get the info off of a DVR, not sure if it will work with TimeWarner Box, I imagine it is made by someone other then TimeWarner, so give it a go.

Thanks a lot, really appreciate the info.

Someone posted on another thread that this info is a bit old (bout 2 years), but the software should be updated if the links are still good.

I've been using a similar setup on Windows, but plan to try this on my Mac as soon as I get home.

Best,

So, I found that if you download the FirewireSDK from apple, just like the tutorial says, the AVC Browser Enhanced in included. But it doesn't look like the screen shot on the tutorial.

Am I missing something, or did someone re-vamp the apple sample? If so, where can I get it. The links from the tutorial and every other site are the same, and that page no longer exists.

Thanks

Brian
