Hullo all,

I've not owned a TV for about four years now and have recently had a hankering to play on my SNES.
I've got an EyeTV DTT stick for the Mac, but from what I gather that will only take a digital input? I've no idea if it still works either because I can't get a reception in this flat!

On the SNES side of things, I only have the Multi out cables, so I can use composite or SCART...

Does anyone know ho I could achieve this?

Many thanks,
Ben

Aye, I had considered that, but it's not quite the same...

There are various USB video digitizers (as oppose to TV receivers) mostly they take composite inputs. Elgato do one although IIRC there are cheaper ones around. Don't think you can do it with the hardware you have though.

Best bet appears to be this. The Elgato equivalent is three times the price. Elgato really have gone down the pan in the last couple of years...
