I want to record the superbowl game but my VHS is broke. Is there a way I can record it from my TV to my MacBook Pro? Seems like it should be as easy as when I connect my camcorder via firewire.



And does anybody have a ballpark idea how large a 3 to 4 hr iMove video would be?

    Thanks for the suggestion. It got me thinking about seeing if my Sony digital camcorder would be able to record from a TV and it will. This will work great because then I can connect the camcorder to my MBP, import it the movie, edit out the commercials (keeping any good ones) and then make a DVD.



    I just hope my teams wins... :-)



    Thanks again...
