| SCART to firewire? I have a firewire connection in my PC and a pile of VHS tapes I'd like to transfer over to my PC for later editing. I suppose some electronic gadgetry would be needed in between? |

Yes, it's called a Analogue to DV converter, many companies produce them, Canopus being one of the better, Datavideo is another. |

The device you want is an External PC Video Digitiser. You are right to look out for a firewire version, but most will be USB 2.0. Don't get a USB 1/1.1 as these are not capable of full screen digitising. |

You'll need an adapter to convert the scart plug to 3 phono's (audio L, audio R, and video) but they're dirt cheap. |
