To answer the original question :), there are a number of options for
Mac II video to NTSC conversion. Some answers depend on the type of video
adapter you have in it. SOme of the Mac II boards will produce black or
white (bi-level) NTSC video just with a special cable. Others will
give you grey scale with a special cable. 8*24 and 8*24 GC and RAsterOps
boards can have an optional RasterOps $499 video expander attached to
give you recordable video directly. 

Best and cheapest are rarely the same creatures!
