I needed to convert about ten VHS tapes for someone and this worked perfect. It connects from the VHS player to your laptop which in my case was a Macbook. You need some kind of capture software on your computer, there are a number of free programs available. Then press play on your VHS player and the image plays on your computer screen and is captured by the software. The part that took the most time for me was figuring out the initial setup and settings of the software. Once I had that figured out it was easy. The tapes play and are captured in real time so it will take as long as the recording you are digitizing. For the price and quality this device is hard to beat. Highly recommended!

Good video converter. It was easy to use and the instructions were not bad. I used it to digitize my wife's old family vhs tapes. It also worked with my PAL vhs.

Works perfect

I followed the instructions to use OBS and had no issues transferring VHS tapes to my PC. Unfortunately, my VHS player is ancient now and it seems to have issues ejecting and playing videos now. I can hear a piece of something rattling around inside of my player, but this has nothing to do with this converter. It's unfortunate how much VHS players cost now. I wanted to transfer all of my VHS tapes like home records hoarding, thanks and whatnot over to digital, but my VHS player gave out on me. I was actually very surprised at the quality. After converting my tapes from analog to digital using this, they looked much clear and cleaner with no noise. Personally, I think, if you're looking to transfer your tapes over to digital, then look no further than this product.

Do not buy this item if you're running Windows 11 on a PC. It will not work. No support provided. The phone number given goes to voicemail and then you'll receive a text stating that you must send an email. I have not had a response to my email yet and have returned the product to Amazon

Make a note that if you intend to use S-video for transferring visual data from a VCR or camcorder, this kit does not include an S-video cable (just an outlet), so order one of those ahead of time or with the kit. S-video is superior to RCA. You'll still use the audio cable included in the kit. This transfer/capture device works fairly well for such a simple, cheap kit. If, like me, you tend to turn your laptop camera off, remember to turn it back on before trying to use this device. It doesn't use the laptop's built-in camera, of course, but if the camera is disabled it won't allow you to utilize the included USB camera transfer device, either. After that, it's pretty simple plug-and-play, even with Win11. Don't expect miracles - you are not going to get super high resolution. But you do get a nice quality video and audio for cheap.

Took me a bit to figure out but now it's working like a dream to transfer my old videos using my Sony Handycam Video 8 Camcorder to my MacBook Air. Delighted to see these old family videos preserved in a digital format.

This was exactly what I needed to hook up my gaming console to my new smart TV that lacked RCA jacks but had HDMI.
