Product description
This USB video capture device makes it straightforward to convert old tapes into editable digital files. As a VHS to digital converter it handles RCA and S-Video sources, so you can preserve family videos or archive recordings with basic editing software. The unit is compact and plugs into a laptop, offering a simple digital transfer workflow for VHS, VCR, DVD and camcorder footage.
Key Points
The device accepts composite RCA and S-Video inputs for transferring analogue video to a computer, and records up to 1080P at 30 Hz according to the manufacturer. It connects via USB and includes a 1 metre cable plus a USB A to Type C adapter to increase compatibility with modern laptops 🎞️. Software such as OBS, VLC and PotPlayer is supported for capture, live streaming and recording, which makes it useful for both archiving and simple production tasks.
Benefits
Using this capture card lets you convert legacy media into common digital formats so files can be edited, backed up and shared more easily. The plug-and-play approach reduces setup time, and the included adapter improves compatibility with USB Type C ports found on many newer machines. For retro gaming or digitising VHS collections the unit provides a practical bridge between old devices and current computers 💻. Consider that maximum capture resolution is limited to 1920 x 1080 at 30 Hz, so it may not match higher-end capture cards for demanding production work.
