try a used canopus advc-100 they work great
w resolume 1.5.1, i plugged vcrs,camera's and other pc's(via s-video) into it,plus they can be used with
after effects 6.5 and premiere to fire wire your output window to a t.v.(a real plus i think)
but a not so expensive usb2 capture would work too.
hope this helps

Thanks for your tip on the canopus advc-100,
it's looking good, for 300$.
i have a shuttle and i think the only way to connect it to the Canopus is Via
fire wire .
(dumb question) is firewire faster than USB2 ?
because the USB capture device like : ADS Instant DVD 2.0 Video is only 119$,
so I'm tempted by the cheapest option, but still not sure of what to buy.
If you have suggestions or experienced others products, please let me know.
cheers

usb2.0 is fast than the currently commonly used firewire
