New Dazzle Bridge

I picked up something interesting at a garage sale. It is a Dazzle
Hollywood DV-Bridge.
It has analog IEEE 1394, and S-Video in and out, and connects to the
computer using IEEE 1394. From the manual, it can convert analog to DV
both ways. It also appears able to pass data between devices (I suppose
this means between a camera and VCR, for instance) without a computer.
I'm not familiar with DV format, but I understand it is uncompressed and
needs to be converted to a standard compressed (i.e., .AVI) format.
My use would be to convert old VCR tapes and store them on DVD or hard
drive. Does anyone have a resource they can point me to?
--
If you're right 90% of the time, why quibble about the remaining 3%?

Vail's Second Axiom:
The amount of work to be done increases in proportion to the
amount of work already completed.
