Ripping MiniDV from camcorder over Firewire (no iMovies)

[NickXX]

Hi all,

I recently installed Leopard and have lost my iLife installation from Tiger. Not a problem normally, but me and a borrowed MiniDV camera are in France and my Tiger CD is in the UK!

Are there any applications for Mac which can rip MiniDV video from a camcorder using Firewire other than iMovie? The camera is a Samsung and I have checked the support site for software with no avail.

I basically need to get video from the MiniDV cam onto my MacBook, but will not be able to bring the Camera or tapes back to the UK.

Many thanks in advance,

Nick
