I'm trying to digitalise some old camcorder tapes that i found from when I was younger, however what I'm seeing online is syaing that this is no longer possible on Mac Tahoe, and I'm wondering if anyone can confirm this or help with how I can digitalise them.

I'm using a Sony MiniDV tape camcorder with apple thunderbolt 3 to thunderbolt 2 adapter, thunderbolt to firewire adapter, firewire 400-800 adapter and firewire 4 pin - 6 pin cable.

When I use playback on the camcorder, the firewire is not detected on my mac, but the thunderbolt is.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.
