Honestech VIDBOX For Mac. Works reasonably well to copy your movies to computer. Purchased to backup our aging VHS movies and family videos. It was very easy to install and came with everything needed to connect VHS player to the computer's usb port. Software is easy to run, although a little redundant as you have to click through the same.
