I don't have an old 8mm camcorder, and besides I want to stay away from any device that relies on the computer to record..
I've tried Hauppauge WinTV many years ago, I remember buying it and installing the card in the PC.. I remember the quality of the video compression was good and smooth, but it added horizontal bars and the horizontal hold seem to go out of wack when there was shaky video, and home videos that pretty much was a no go route for me.. I still had the card and the box.. I just moved out of a house ive been living for 18 years, and I saw it sitting around in the pile of stuff I took down from the attic, long story short it didn't go with me lol.. I'm staying away from those USB devices and PC cards.. Too much trouble and than they are worth, and a waste of money, and I've yet to see any of them produce good results...
I also tried this, many years ago too:

It also gave video issues, flickering color on the screen, almost thought i was gonna have a seizure.... Not sure what the technical term would be as I'm terrible with that.. There's already enough noise on VHS/Beta tapes and those capture cards added more conflicting issues...
I think I'm going with that ClonerAlliance Pro Box.. I've been reading reviews about it, and most are very positive..
