I have a Sony Handycam CCD-TRV67. The only ports it has are S video, RFU DC IN, and the yellow and black slots (video+audio). I already have a video recorded on a Hi-8 tape and wish to put it on the computer. The only cables I have are to charge the battery and the yellow+black one. (there is no red) How can I hook the camera up to the computer to put videos on there?

If that is an analog camera then,I think you will need to get a video capture device. something like this;

Since you have an older analog type camcorder, you need a way to digitize your tapes first so that your computer can use them.
To digitize you need one of the following: newer digital camcorder, computer digital capture card, or an external analog/digital capture device. See http://www.videoguys.com/vidcap.htm for details. None of these options is cheap. Sorry.

YOu need a capture card such as those from Pinnacle or Dazzel that have analog connections, preferrably S-Video connections.
