Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

A lot of people have written about their bad experiences with this device. It all seems to concern the software, and I would have to concur. I didn't even bother with the included software because I've experienced it before. Here are some steps to get it working. Step 1: Plug it in directly. If you need to use an extension usb cord, be sure its a high quality one. Windows 10 will see it and install the driver automatically. Step 2: take the included disc and throw into nearest trash can, it's worthless. Step 3: Download and install OBS Studio. It's free, it will recognize almost any type of video capture device you connect and it will allow you to tweak the video to your liking (brightness, contrast, aspect ratio, resolution, etc) You may need to watch a couple tutorial videos on how to use it but trust me, it's well worth it. As for the video quality, you get out what you put in. If the device is outputting a poor signal or if it's just a poor condition tape, that's what you'll get. For me, it does its job. I really just want to capture some sort of digital copy of my old tapes before they degrade and are lost forever and this allows me to do it.
