$7 - EasyCAP USB2 Video Captures my 29 Year old VHS Tape - 693

Thank you so much for making this video! It was very helpful. Sharing your confirmation video, along with your sense of humor, and devotion to your parents was a cool bonus to the tutorial. Thanks again!

I have this exact thing, under a different name. Very useful, spent around 30h copying old VHS tapes, definitly worth every cent

Bless you <3 I've been fighting this set up for days and you just helped me so much bless your heart

You have excellent English, there are movies that seem to have never made it to DVD, I have a couple, and your video was a relaxed way to understand the conversion process.

Thanks for this video! its nice to just know that something is worth the few dollars i plan to spend on it before i order it. i plan to use it for like security webcams and such.

So you started collecting servers and Ryobi tools after your confirmation 😁 Nice tool, I probably used one once for my job

Thank you I just connected the part and saw your video about it really sweet the video of your confirmation very nicely explained with humor LOL I save my old videotapes with the Santa Barbara series greetings from Germany

Thanks very much from the UK! Very helpful.

Thanks for the video, it's nice to see that little thing so cheap and performing well. I like to give you a little bit of advice before you start recording, shake the VHS tape a little bit and put it into the player push the FF button until the end and later the REW button to lose the tape.

Wow. this came in a perfect time! I also have some old VHS tapes and i'd like to see if this EasyCAP was worth the money.. Thank you, Morten! =)

I just found my old Easycap from about a decade ago, trying to get some ideas with it. Cool upload!

Coming from Danish descent I enjoyed your video and your accent. Thank you for showing me how this contraption works. I've been wondering if it is worth buying and you have confirmed that it is a worthy choice. Keep up the good work and be blessed.

I remember seeing a couple of documentaries on the VHS era, and they were both very interesting. It was the first time ever we were introduced to "time shifting" television. Prior to VHS machines, you had to be home to watch your favorite show. I never really thought about that. Also something like 70% (if my memory serves me correctly) of VHS movies were never released on DVD according to one of the films. Of course a whole bunch of it was junk. There was even a company that paid their employees a bonus to come up with titles for the cover box art before the movie had even been made! They then used the title to write a script, and of course the movies were just awful, but the company made a ton of cash. Why? Because we were all a bunch of knuckleheads who would rent these terrible movies based on the box art. Those were the days! If you plan on doing quite a bit of these video transfers you may want to invest in the Hauppauge HD PVR system, but this device seems to work very well. I am sure you can get the Hauppauge in PAL format. I have bought a couple of used machines on Ebay, and the quality of the video is just excellent. It also removes any copy guard so there is no flicker or brightening or darkening of the screen. Cool video...gotta go, going to record my VHS of MAD MAX with Mel Gibson, cool movie!

Thanks for sharing. I have a UCEC adapter & I have also been having problems with image quality/green/magenta lines appearing. Strangely it doesn't happen with every tape. I originally thought it was because the tapes were 20-30 years old but have managed to play them on my TV with no problems at all. Think I'm gonna have to purchase a different adapter.

Very good tutorial and I greatly enjoyed your excursion back into family history ...... I am John from Aneruca ...take care ....

Thank you very much sir for the great article and God bless you

Instead of relying on a cloud I am converting my digital files onto analog. All it takes is a power outage or a glitch and all our precious memories are lost or kept from our grasp

I'm always impressed about the usefulness of cheap things ordered from china. Unless I'm mistaken, it should be possible to capture TV-Signals from a reciever with a Scart / Component connection, even if it gets blocked on digital connections... and most TV-Stations only send in 480p /576p anyway.

damn VHS. that takes me back to the 90s and my childhood, i remember having home alone 1 on VHS and i watched it that much i wore the tape out lol. I have done a lot of VHS to DVD in my time back when Windows XP was a thing.

So nostalgia looking at these...I miss the minidv era....I owned a vx2100e and I owned a few VHS tapes.
