You'll need a capture card so you can plug the VCR into your Mac and record the video off of it.

For example: El Gato Video Capture - Amazon.com

Capture VHS and DVD videos How can I capture home videos from a VHS tape to my MacBook Pro? In the future I would also like to convert my home made DVD videos to my laptop as well. These are all vhs, vhs-c tapes and dvds from home movies I've taken over the last 34 years. They run the full cycle from when you actually put a vhs tape into the camera up through recording to an sd-card and now using my phone. Actually they begin with 8 mm film home movies my dad took starting 62 years ago and I transferred to DVD several years ago. I have: MacBook Pro 13-inch, 2017, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports Processor: 2.3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5 Graphics: Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB Memory: 8 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3 macOS: macOS Ventura Version 13.1 Storage: 250 GB And connected via the USB-C port an Asus SDRW-O8U9M-U Mfg’d Dec 2021 MCD0GQ027611 iMovie showed 2 files on my DVD: VIDEO_RM and VIDEO_TS but said they were not importable.

Importing VHS from a SCART VIDEO RECORDER Hello I have various old VHS tapes and a very good Panasonic Super VHS recorder. The only output is SCART and I bought a DIGITNOW USB AC/SCART GRABBER from Amazon. The Grabber doesn't seem to work with my MACPRO 2013 connecting it to the USB ports, nor with the PowerbookAir 2017 or the MacBookPro 2017 (which has only USBC ports, and I used adaptors from USBC to USB3). Does anyone have a suggestion on how to import these hundred of video tapes in Mac Mojave, given I have 4 Macs of various kind I can use. I am unwilling to update to Catalina and following Systems as I have far to many applications and data which do not work with the newer system. PLEASE DO NOT SUGGEST ME TO UPDATE CAUSE >I DID IT AND IT TURNED OUT DISASTER FOR ME. These tapes are extremely important and tqking them to a shop will cost me a fortune. Regards and thanks for any suggestion you will give.
