1a.: transferring old 8mm video footage to imovie

I would appreciate any tips on syncing audio and video as i transfer footage from my camcorder to my mac book pro. I successfully transferred vhs footage to mpr iMovie via
roxio transfer program. yay!! last night as i tried to transfer from the camcorder the audio
and video seemed to have a bit of a delay. I used the s cable and the yellow plug for audio.
Then tried using the red,white, yellow and s cable .. maybe an improvement there. What's the best method?

Thanks,
Patty

Patty,

What hardware are you using for the capture? And what camcorder are you using for playback? The 4 pin S-Video will give the best picture. If you use the S-video you will not use the yellow cable as that is standard video, you will then use the red/white cables for audio assuming that is what the capture device has.
