Usb Video Capture Card For Mac

Capturing video from an outside source requires special hardware - like a video capture card (such as PCI or PCI Express), PCMCIA, or USB or Firewire based video capture device, and Video Capture Software. Capturing video of what is displayed on the computer screen usually requires special software. The USB 2.0 Video Capture card with snap shot adapter with audio input can capture High-quality video and audio file direct by USB 2.0 interface without sound card. The installation is very simple and the external power is not necessary.

I purchased this to convert my 30 VHS tapes I have from over 30 years ago. Very easy to use. I had to download the software.

I do not have any other devices to compare this to but I am done with 5 tapes so far and was able to save at Hi-Res and upload to YouTube to share with family and friends. A definite recommend if you have old tapes to convert. I looked online and it looks like service charge about $20 per tape to convert. I already am ahead of the game in just 5 tapes.

Let me first say that I tried 'em all before this one: TOTMC, EZCAP, even the Elgato with limited (if any) results. Best buy external disc drive for mac. The TOTMC was the best of those three, which actually would capture video and audio but the problem was the audio broke up a lot in the final MPEG2 using the given software (ShowBiz). Upon this, I decided it was the capture's fault and bought an EZCap (again supplied with ShowBiz). This one did the exact same thing, with even worse results.

Then decided 'oh, I'm not spending enough!' And sprung for the Elgato. Well, those drivers wouldn't even install on my system (Win7Pro, x64), so that was a true waste.

After reading a ton of reviews, and even two pages stating 'it's YOUR fault frames are dropping and sound is cutting out, here's what YOU can do, it's NOT your. This is a great inexpensive audio capture device. We had some old audio cassettes that we wanted to preserve in digital format. Having looked into hiring out this service we thought we would try to do it ourselves.

I would like to point out that it suggests that you disable any anti-virus software on your computer in order to install the software included on the disk.just remember to turn your anti-virus software back on! Once we connected the RCA cables to our cassette player the software pretty much did the work for us. We were surprised how easy the process was and the audio quality was pretty good coming from a 30 year old cassette tape. I am not a techie type person and was hesitant to try this myself but was surprised at how simple the process was and the results were good. For less than $20 we were. **Using with a mini DV Camcorder **Unbelievably this actually worked. Using it on a mac running a pretty old OS(forget the goofy names they give them sorry).
