Software included:

Video capture suite - Nice and simple. Full OEM version complete with serial number. Runs on all versions of Windows 7, Vista & XP. Captures, edits & burns video to DVD. Can also upload videos to Youtube. Full video tutorial on our CD - just copy what we do.

Video Converter: Make your captured videos iPod/iPad (H.264), PSP and YouTube compatible. Convert to MPEG-4 & keep them on your Home Media PC.

DVD and MP4 Player: Plays every video format known. Free lifetime updates.

No extra fees to pay for any of the supplied software, all programs are full versions.

What will the kit copy? What won't it copy? You'll be able to copy all your own homemade videos and most things recorded from TV (although legally speaking you shouldn't keep those programmes longer than 7 days). Each shop bought video we tried converted fine (Ivor The Engine, The Clangers and the Bond movie Goldeneye)
Anything else you have, on what looks like a regular blank tape, should be transferable.

Technical information : The software supports PAL (UK/Europe/Australia/New Zealand) & NTSC (USA/Canada) devices. Both S-Video and Composite video inputs are supported by both hardware and software (we supply a composite lead). Even and odd fields are combined into single frames that can be captured at full frame rates for the applicable standard (VHS Upscaling). The maximum supported frame size is: PAL (UK & Europe) 720 x 576 (DVD quality) @ 25fps / NTSC (USA) 720 x 480 @ 30fps. Our kit has been tested with 32 & 64 bit versions of Windows 7, Vista & XP. We've also personally tested the kit with Windows 8 Consumer Preview 64 bit build 8250. Captures video & audio over USB2 (older USB1 is too slow) to a standard MPEG-2 or H.264(requires a fast 2.8GHz+ dual or quad core PC for live H.264 capture, slow systems can convert post-capture) or uncompressed AVI file. Our USB adapter performs Time Base Correction - which means even if your 1980s wedding video has gone all wobbly & wavy our adapter will still capture what remains, providing it plays back on a TV okay.

In addition to the USB adapter, we send a two metre yellow/red/white phono lead PLUS a Scart adapter - this means you can connect all Scart equipped VHS & Super VHS VCRs and older VHS-C, Hi8, Video8, Digital8 & Mini-DV camcorders. Even older pre-Scart VHS and Betamax players can be attached (see Attaching Cables PDF Guide and just ask if you need the free BNC adapter).
You can also connect more modern equipment, such as Freeview, satellite and cable TV hard drive recorders and camcorders with DVD or memory cards - basically, anything that can be connected to a TV by Scart or Yellow, Red & White leads can be recorded onto your PC. DVDs you produce will play back in any DVD player, providing you use DVD-R or DVD+R media and not rewritables.
Here's a PDF Guide showing you how to connect almost any VCR or Camcorder correctly when using our kit.

How easy is it to use? Just plug the Scart adapter into the back of your VHS video player, attach the yellow, red & white lead, connect the USB capture device, install software from the CD, finally plug the USB adapter into your PC.

We've tested the kit with a wide variety of laptop & desktop PCs running Windows 7, Vista and XP. If your PC is less than five years old, it will be powerful enough to run our kit. Please read the pre-purchase FAQ page if you're still running XP and aren't quite sure if your PC will be powerful enough.

We give you all the hardware and software you need to connect your VCR or camcorder to your PC. The included software makes the capturing, editing & burning of your project simple. Our kit includes three pages of easy-to-follow instructions for Windows 7, Vista & XP, along with a video tutorial on the CD that shows you exactly what to do.

If you need further help we're only a standard UK phone call away. We buy direct from the USB device manufacturers & only supply the most recent versions. We know our products inside and out & only sell directly to the customer. You can buy similar looking USB adapters from a 'Newspaper Reader Offer' or PC Megastore, but they'll often supply outdated USB hardware, with only half the cables you'll need & poor after-sales support.

Frequently Asked Questions Q. Do I have to burn the captured videos to DVD? A. No. You can also retrieve the MPEG-2 videos you capture from the 'My Documents/Videos' folder on the hard drive. Then copy them to a USB stick or external hard drive. Q. Can I convert those MPEG-2 files? A. Yes. We include Handbrake which will convert to the more space efficient MPEG-4 or H.264 formats, for storage in your media library. Q. Will your USB hardware give the best possible result? A. It really will. We use the latest chipsets with the best video & audio reproduction. Q. I lost my Camcorder's AV (TV connection) lead, can I still use your kit? A. You'll need this lead to use our kit. Email tim@trcomputers.co.uk with your make & model and we'll try and find you a compatible lead, which will typically cost £5. If you have a faulty VHS-C camcorder you could use a VHS-C to VHS adapter instead. Q. Does it happen in real time? How long does it take to get one hour of video onto a DVD? A. Yes. Capturing 1 hour of video takes 60 minutes. Authoring (only needed for making DVDs) takes another 60 minutes, on a fast PC. Burning to DVD takes 10 minutes. Q. Does the kit work with all versions of Windows? A. Yes. We've personally tested it with all variations of Windows 7, Vista & XP. Q. Will the kit work with Windows 8, when it comes out in the Autumn? A. Yes. We've personally tested the kit with Windows 8 Consumer Preview 64 bit build 8250. Photos here. Q. How easy is it? A. Just follow our simple instructions & copy what we do in the tutorial video. Q. Can I buy Video-2-PC at my local PC dealer? A. No. We only supply Video-2-PC direct from this site, Amazon & eBay. (8000+ positive eBay feedback) Anything similar looking for sale elsewhere won't include our CD, instructions, two HD tutorial videos, extra software or after-sales support.
