Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

Very solidly built metal case and high quality receptacles, etc.

My 60 year old eyes judge the overall quality as nearly equal to the vhs playing directly to a tv.

I also tried a budget hdmi upscaler (little square box, about $30 on amazon) but the image quality was horrible.

Also had problems with audio not staying in sync with the video.

Price

I was concerned at three times the cost money would be needlessly spent.

Competitiveness

It will take either composite or s-video input.

I have been searching for options to convert old family videos from vhs to digital and have settled on this startech unit.

A few months back i bought an orei 901 converter, but plugged in the wrong power cord and fried the unit.

Also tried a diamond vc500 (composite video to usb), capturing with cyberlink.
