In addition to VCRs and camcorders, Vidbox can be used to record from DVD players, cable boxes, and game consoles, as long as the content doesn’t have copy protection enabled.
It can’t output to a television, nor be used as a second Mac display. Vidbox is an input-only device, designed expressly for one-way conversion of analog tape signals to the digital format. The device is made of plastic and the build quality feels a little on the cheap side, but the quality of the captured video and audio was representative of the original source material, with no visible degradation from the encoded MPEG-4 files with AAC 128Kbps 48KHz audio.

Weighing less than two ounces, the box connects to (and is powered by) a free USB 2.0 or 3.0 port on your Mac with the included cable the manufacturer recommends a direct connection, but I used it with no problems attached to a hub.

The straightforward Video Conversion for Mac software walks users through every step of the process. (Higher quality S-Video is also supported, but you’ll have to supply the cable.)
That’s because the package includes a small box and with a three-foot RCA cable for capturing video and stereo audio. Vidbox Video Conversion for Mac ($70 on Amazon makes capturing footage from old VHS, S-VHS, 8mm, and Betamax players as easy as digitizing home videos shot during the Mini-DV era.
