Fluky Software - NO AUDIO
So it seems that I'm unable to record audio. I get my video to preview on my screen but no matter what I select I'm unable to get audio through the device. It also appears that there might be an issue with the software as some of the options that I should be able to select are just not there (i.e. several drop down menus with no options until I switch another option off and then back on again). Wrote support for the enclosed software. I hope they get back to me. Not holding my breath as the software packaged is not even listed on their website as current or legacy.

5.0 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2017

I don’t often leave a lot of product reviews, although there was no way I couldn’t for this item. I bought this with the thought that I would run this hardware and it’s accompanying software through my Windows 7 VirtualBox on my Mac, although there was a driver issue and I couldn’t get it to function properly. Then I discovered that my Mac reads the device as an external webcam, and using QuickTime I can directly recording whatever I feed into it! I’m using this to convert old cassette tapes with family videos and it’s doing a fantastic job, with as best of quality as possible.

Recommended for anyone with a Mac, as it works perfectly and doesn’t even require the software! Would definitely purchase again, without hesitation, if ever needed to, especially for the amazing price compared to competing high-end AV Composite Capture devices.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works Fine But Not Easycap
Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2017
Verified Purchase
The product is fine for the price you pay. It took a while to set up. I tried to set it up on my mac and it didn't work. Then I used a PC. I used the software that it came with. The CD I got was a small CD not a full sized one like the picture.
At first I thought it was a fake and won't work. The packaging and directions had spelling errors. It took a while and some research but I got it to work and installed the software.
The software wasn't Easycap though. It was another software but it allows capturing and editing. I hooked it up with my Handycam 8 that used 8mm tapes. I was able to watch my old movies on my PC.

1.0 out of 5 stars Didn't work for me, probably won't work for you either. Spend a little more to get a little more.

I bought this device to transfer come DV tapes and VHS cassettes for a friend. I tried it on my hackintosh. I was running windows via parallels (i dont need dual boot for those curious lol). It was recognized just fine, but the picture i was getting was really bad. Luckily another friend let me borrow his capturing device that worked perfectly fine in the same scenario, so I know that the problem wasn't the hackintosh or virtual windows or drivers or anything like that. Maybe for others it worked just fine and something just happened to it while manufacturing or in the delivery process (though it didnt look damaged or anything). I ended up just returning it. I would have loved for it to work, but I will definitely spend more money for better quality. Would I recommend this? well if you can get it to work and your project isn't too important, probably. But If you're looking for a terrific device that works great and produces a great end product, then this isnt it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good device, great quality video and audio, did not need to install anything for Windows 10
Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2016
Verified Purchase
I'm really happy with this product. I purchased it to convert a few VHS tapes to digital format. I did not need the user manual or CD. I'm running Windows 10 64-bit and windows installed the drivers automatically. I never installed the software that came on the CD. Instead, I used VirtualDub with the free UTVideo codec. Checkout the forums at videohelp.com for guidance on how to use VirtualDub. I also downloaded some free software to translate and burn the content to DVD. The quality of the video captured is perfect so the hardware works great. I've used other video capture cards in the past and the quality from this USB device is just as good as Diamond's HD750 PCI-E capture card. I think anyone complaining about the video / audio quality is probably using bad software because the hardware is good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does the job
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2015

I give 4 stars because I am using this product to convert home videos (VHS) to DVDs and I am not sure if the SLIGHTLY poorer quality is from this product or the quality of our home videos as they are old. The product's instructions were confusing and a little frustrating, they explain way more than what is really needed to be done. Once I figured out I had already had all the software downloaded that I needed, I plugged it in and was good to start recording. I am happy that I am able to convert our home videos to DVDs that will last a lot longer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great For Copying Vhs Movies
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2015
Verified Purchase
Bought these to copy our vhs movies to our pc. I was skeptical after reading some of the reviews, so I took a chance and are we happy we did. No problem setting the software up and had started to copy our vhs collection within 5 minutes. Since recording is in real time it takes how long the movie actually is. But I minimized it so I could do other work on our pc. The movie came our great and we didn't need any other software to get it copied. Some people called the included software crap, but it worked fine on our pc, which runs windows 8. So 1 down and 199 more to go. This was a good investment since our collection has rare vhs movies. 5 Big Stars

2.0 out of 5 stars Hardware is nice, but can't get software to run.
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2016
Verified Purchase
The hardware seems well made, but the capture software is unknown to me, and the activation key on the (mini) CD didn't activate the software. I also tried the key that was shown in a dialog in the PDF manual (not really expecting it to work, but thought I would give it a chance).

Also, I don't like the mini CDs that are used to distribute the drivers and software. I have two new laptops: 1) is a Lenovo Yoga, which doesn't have a CD drive 2) Is a high-end Alian (Dell) with a 'touch feed' (slot feed) Blue-Ray drive that does not accept the mini-disks. So the first thing I have to do is use my old, two DVD drive desktop, to make a copy of the mini-disk onto a full size disk. I first searched for the drivers and software to load without needing to use the CD, but I couldn't find it.

Hopefully you can load the drivers and get the video software to work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works fine with OBS
Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2019
Verified Purchase
Don't bother with the provided program, you can just use OBS for free and it read in as a display capture device. I had no issues with the playback from an old camcorder to a computer recording, though the quality left a lot to be desired (likely from the tape I was recording or the settings I was recording at, not the device itself). Overall, I'd recommend this as a quick buy to move some stuff off of old tapes or anything else ancient enough to have a AV output in 2020.
