Easily and reliably transfer high-quality video images from VHS tapes, digital camcorders, and similar sources to their Mac computer for editing in Final Cut Pro or iMovie.

Most similar converters have objectionable video quality – especially when converting composite video into a digital signal. The 3D Y/C separator in the new Grass Valley ADVCmini box provides high-quality conversion typically available only in converters that are much more expensive.

The ADVCmini is ideally suited to those who want to preserve their memories in the best possible image quality at a price that won’t break the bank.
The ADVCmini is competitively priced yet offers dramatically better conversion characteristics – even from composite video sources.

Video can be captured via composite Y/C, S-video, or SCART cable, along with left/right stereo audio. True 3D Y/C separation provides excellent quality conversion from composite video sources. The intuitive unit is small and powered by the Mac's USB port. The included software provides a video capture tool and compresses the video as it converts.
All required cables are provided: USB, composite video/audio, S-Video, and SCART.

The included software installs the necessary driver and capture software to control the Grass Valley ADVCmini hardware.
Capture from VCR, camcorder or other video sources to the ADVCmini using the included cables and connect to your Mac via the USB port, video can then be captured using the included software.
