    Need advice on conversion/software

    Yeah, sorry for that, totally forgot to specify. I'm on win 7 x64. Mpeg streamclip looks like it should do exactly what I want. Thanks so much!!

    Need advice on conversion/software

    Hey all. I have a 2.6gb mov video file in which I have to cut a few scenes and I'd need to convert it to a convenient format. Something that would be readable on most basic players for windows and os x (was thinking of Mpeg-2?). I also have to reduce its size to something like 500mb or less...

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    Bump Just wanted to give a warning for those that might want to try to extract video content using the Easycap - Composite to USB adapters. I found out after a bit of research that mine was a fake. Apparently, tons of those on the market are replica coming out of some chinese factory. The ones...

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    No copyright protection, it was a home-made video of a wedding. Interesting to know though! Here is how a video would look like when I'd try to convert it, for anyone that's curious : http://www.mediafire.com/watch/a8kdxhb4hgi6ipu/Test.mpg

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    Bump. Got a free replacement usb-composite adapter. That didn't work either. I contacted the company support, they haven't answered yet. I'll have to look into these dual recorders, they look quite handy! Thanks for the suggestion Modern Day Myth Prod! I also thought about a DVD burner with...

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    Bump. I thought I might try to pass the video info through S-video instead(there's an additionnal S-video connector on my adaptor and I can chose S-video as input in UVS). I know it doesn't pass audio, but I think I have a workaround for that. Now, I don't have a certified S-video cable, but I...

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    After some more infernal troubleshooting, here are the results: Yes I can watch the VHS on the tv with the composite output. Btw, I noticed that some of the image distortion, which I thought was induced by the faulty rendering, was present in the original tape. Don't want to be misleading here...

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    After doing a bunch of test runs with different codecs it seems to me like the problem isn't lying there. All files were suffering from the same choppyness, distortions, lack of sound etc.. even when rendering to wmv. Not sure what to try at this point? Any other ideas are welcome.

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    Hi, Thanks a lot for your replies FilmmakerJ : The version of UVS is quite old! It's version 10 from 2006, so probably similar to what you were using. Don't know about the device, but they were sold together in a bundle on ebay, so I guess from they're from the same year. Didn't realize how...

    Ripping VHS to digital issues

    Hi all, first post here. Seems like an incredible place. So I'm trying to rip these old VHS tapes with Uleadvideostudio. I bought this adaptor that comes with the software and has the standard 3 connectors (white,red,yellow) and it goes to USB at the other end. I started the caption and...
