      @Pwn3dbyth3n00b 5 місяців тому +3

      Usually the camcorder doesn't have RCA plugs into it. If it does it's probably one audio channel. Usually they have a 3.5mm jack that carries video/audio and they typically come with a plug that looks like a headphone plug but the other end is RCA. Ontop of that it also might have a plain 3.5mm audio out that pairs with an S-video plug. Another thing I've come across is something called DV or Firewire which is like a vintage equivalent USB/HDMI connector that outputs digital video and audio signal. My Sony Digital8 camcorder has a 4 pin Firewire connector that I use. Some camera can have a 6 pin firewire and even more but when it's more pins the camera is more modern.

      I think the device itself is more likely to be the limiting factor, Apple isn't great at supporting generic hardware on them. More profitable to make it so only their own, or approved, devices work I guess.
      You could buy an old android phone with USB OTG(on the go) for a low price though, even the oldest ones with OTG are likely to be fine.
