dvgrab is awesome! I used it quite a bit recently, transferring old tapes on to more reliable media. Sometimes it the tape had an error and I had to rewind a bit and restart capture, but it mostly just worked.

Be warned, it does produce pretty large raw files, though, so after import, I ran ffmpeg to convert them all to mp4 files. No visible loss in quality, and about 90% size reduction.
