I start with (JVC DR-DX5 or JVC HR-S5300U) VHS or DV or DVR then to Canopus ADVC55 using S-video cable & RCA for audio. From Canopus ADVC55 to IMac using 6-pin i.LINK (firewire 1394 - 800 to 400 cable) connector to Thunderbolt adapter to IMac. Since no serious editor is still running firewire 1394 - 800 to 400 cables, the Thunderbolt adapter is.
Hi all-
I would like to get composite video in and out of a MacBook Pro, a 2018/2019 model with USB C connections.
I happen to have an old ADVC110, and firewire via my Thunderbolt display. It lights up (i.e., it powers) and the input-selector works, but no images show up in Final Cut or any other capture software. Sometimes it's detected, sometimes not at all.
Any thoughts? Do I need a more direct connection than the Thunderbolt display? Might an external power adapter make a difference?
Also open to solutions outside the ADVC 110 for bidirectional composite video?
For completeness, my main application is an analog video synthesizer, not capturing/recording VHS. No audio needed.
Thanks and regards,
-Amanda
