I recommend a good hardware encoder for the job, it will look better and can filter out noise(but analog noise was not like digital noise and i found it less annoying to begin with).Īn HD card is not needed as the source will not be HD, but most HD cards have a hardware encoder onboard(but NOT stick type tuners.).Īlso, it is best to always use the BEST output from the VCR to the pc, so if you have s-video and the capture card has it, go that route.įailing this, capture and burn a test DVD to try on your TV, it may look better then on the computer.Once again, older TV's are very well suited to the lower resolution images. I have a honestech audio recorder 2.0 deluxe it worked ok on windows xp but I now have windows 8.1 I can load the recorder but it will not work is it not compatible with windows 8.1 thanks Go to their website to see if there is a driver for 8.1 If not, then you're out of luck until one is produced. The actual developer of the program is Honest Technology Co. The latest version of the program is supported on PCs running Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10, 32-bit.

I know the source looks good, but once again i am going to say it is the relation between the source VHS and the TV it self that make it look so good. honestech VHS to DVD 9.0 is free to download from our software library. The image is still interlaced, but it is done is such a way that your playback software will make it look good. There are cards out that are Hardware capture cards(mostly internal, but some are external, mostly noticeable by the fact that they need a power source that is not the usb port), this kind of card does all the work(it has its own cpu onboard) and offers far better image quality. I find this to be a very hit and miss thing(removing the lines, but still being rather blurry). Most USB capture devices rely on the cpu to "De-interlace" and compress this video feed.
The computer and even LCD TV's have to upscale the image to make it fill in all that extra resolution. The TV also has a lower resolution in most cases, while this sounds like a bad thing, it is a very good match to the video type being played. This means videos will look sharper on that screen. This said, a CRT TV is an interlaced device(well most are) and works in this way very well. Computers do not work this way and you may see lots of artifacts(they can look like lines or blurring on motion from side to side) as a result. TV's like that you may have connected to the VCR(if it is a CRT) will only refresh every second line per frame. The problem stems from the way TV's and computers work.
