Has a periodic popping noise when trying to record, ruins the point of preserving old videos.Update - this was just with OBS. The product tutorial is incorrect.

Worked well for pulling videos from my camcorders. Takes a moment to get familiar with the app, but once you get the hang of it, it's smooth sailing.

This cable did not work well. The video was in black and white, not color. Bought a different one digit nowand it worked great.

It is just what I needed, to transfer old VHS tapes (yes I still have a VCR!) to dvd. Software is super simple and the quality is incredible for the price!

We have many hours of VHS movies of family and friends that were in boxes in the attic. It was way past time to figure out a way to digitize them or lose them forever. After researching the subject for a bit, sending them off to a commercial outfit for thousands of dollars was a no-go. I purchased a VHS player and started looking for a way to do it myself. I tried a couple of other ways that were unsatisfactory and then found this cable at Amazon and figured I would give it a try. It worked like a champ on Windows 10, easy set up and use. It comes with the software it needs to do the job. One downside is I wasn't able to get it to function on my Linux machines but Windows was basically plug and play. Happy with the purchase and the results.

I successfully recorded stereo audio from old cassette tapes to my PC using Audacity. But when connected to a VHS player I could not get the video to work with 3 different software packages: OBS, VLC, and HonesTech. I could hear the videos audio each time but not see the video.

I was amazed at the quality of my videos as I transferred them to my computer. Since I didn't have an adequate video card in my computer, I couldn't use the full features of the product, but I was able to record the screen with another program (Wondershare screen recorder) as it played using the video capture device. Couldn't be more pleased, especially for the price! The product doesn't come with many directions so you'll need to do some digging to figure out all the features of the software. Other reviewers had blue screens, black screens and all kinds of other technical glitches, but I didn't have one single issue.Update: My computer updated and added the necessary drivers so the converter records now with amazing quality. I can't believe that I can convert all of my VHS tapes with professional quality for under $10!

I’ve never used one of these devices before, so my opinion should be completely disregarded by anyone with any level of intelligence.“I haven’t always been like this. Flabby and weak and full of self doubt. When I was 18 I was strong and lean and didn’t take crap from anyone. I wrestled my way across the state of Georgia, leaving a trail of defeated and deflated opponents in my wake. Did I mention I was the starting goalkeeper for all 4 years of high school? We went undefeated my senior year until finally losing our first game in the state semi-finals. I could punt a soccer ball 70 yards like there was nothing to it. Why are you looking at me like that? Are you laughing at me? I can prove it, it’s on these tapes!!”My 7 year old daughter giggled at me as I struggled to open the package that had just arrived containing the generic, no-name video capture device that would finally set free hours of glorious VHS and 8mm footage of her dad in his glory days. Not surprisingly, my daughter had no idea what I was up to. The concept of a magnetic tape containing ancient video of her even more ancient father when he was no older than her big brother was nowhere near her well of practical knowledge. But she is very sweet, and she loves her dad so she sat patiently and a bit curiously to see what I would do next.As I finished making the necessary connections between the creaky, dusty 8mm camcorder that somehow still turned on and the capture device now snugly inserted into a USB port on the side of my MacBook Pro, QuickTime displayed a small blue window with the word “Play” appearing all pixelated and analog in the upper left corner. I was recording this window and it was showtime. I pressed play and held my breath.And it worked. No fiddling with settings or downloading software. QuickTime recorded what was on the tape with ease, creating massive .mov files on my desktop that were easily imported to Adobe Premiere Pro for editing and cleaning up. The video is only as good as the camera it was recorded on and there is a lack of detail that is unavoidable, but with some careful manipulation in Premiere to correct the color balance and “upscale” the low resolution source material I’ve been able to put together some thoroughly watchable and enjoyable home videos that have been lost for decades and would have been lost for good otherwise. All thanks to this little generic, no-name device that costs less than a #1 at McDonald’s.Pros: other than the fact that it works exactly like I hoped it would, I have no idea what pros it possessesCons: sometimes the video seems extremely desaturated and has sort of a rainbow shimmer over a portion of the screen. If you rewind and try again after ejecting the tape, quitting and restarting QuickTime, and giving the camcorder a good whack, the image will sometimes correct itself and import beautifully. I don’t know if this is a problem with the capture card, the camcorder, or the tape but I’ve read that one way to fix it so it never happens is to run your video signal out of your camcorder into the input on a vcr and then run the video out of the vcr to the capture card (the audio can bypass the vcr and just go straight to the card like normal). Apparently something about the way a VCR outputs video through RCA agrees with capture devices more reliably than a camcorder does. I haven’t tried it so your mileage may vary.

I cavi funzionano bene, sono durevoli e resistenti. Semplice istallazione; capita che il programma sul pc faccia il video da convertire solo in un rettangolo che non si piuo ingrandire, ma non è un grande problema perché comunque il video viene registrato sul pc perfettamente.Io l’ho acquistato in abbinamento ad un cavo scart per videoregistratore con uscita a 3 colori.

Der Stick ist nicht teuer,liefert eine recht gute Konvertierung was das Bild anbetrifft.Die Software ist einfach nicht gerade die neueste,funktioniert aber auch.Leider sind keine Treiber auf der Minidvd .Bei mir installiert Win10 den Treiber automatisch aber hier ist der Ton nur mono ,16bit und unsinnige 96000Hz.Ich habe es mit anderen Treibern probiert,ohne Erfolg.Jetzt importiere ich den Ton dann einfach mit einem anderen Audiokonverter bzw über die interne Soundkarte.(kann man in der Software ändern)
