Hi Karl

Can I assume that your 8 TRV 48E PAL is an analogue camcorder, correct me if I'm wrong. In case it is you will only have composite video (220 - 230 lines resolution) out or maybe S-Video out (370 - 400 lines resolution). You will need some kind of analogue capture board that can either fit into the computers PCI slot or connect to a spare USB. You'll get reasonable quality (if it has S-Video) but nothing near DV captured on firewire.
