A nice project! VHS is actually NOT as bad as digital filters on smart phones make it seem. My recent short SciFi Horror film was shot entirely on actual VHS using my camcorder from 1986. I highly recommend shooting straight to VHS. Less cables required and It's a great challenge lol.

I'm glad I am not the only one who wants to make VHS prints of their short films. Good luck to everyone!

That’s really cool to see digital media converted successfully into analog VHS. Funny since we normally celebrate converting analog to digital. Nice background music! Also shoutout to early ‘90s kids! I was born in ‘93. The year of Jurassic Park, Schindler’s List, and The Sandlot.

Good job man. I'm older than you so I've lived through the tech firsthand and have done exactly what you've done here a couple of times in the not too distant past. It's great to see someone like your(younger)self having an appreciation for the shitty picture quality that we had to deal with back in the day. I love retro tech, can't get enough so it was fun to see you embrace it.

Very interesting. I would’ve never thought to try something like this, but it definitely would be something fun to try out in the future. Awesome stuff.

Awesome as always, I’ve been wanting to do this as well.. on DVD too, 2000’s dude here😂

Very helpful, thanks so much for doing this!

Thanks bro! I remember taping movies from cable to VHS as a kid, but digital has added an extra problem step. Appreciate you! I lost my VHS collection years ago and I'm just hoping it build it back up. I'm also definitely going to make myself a copy of Twilight on VHS 😂

For me, I use an HDD recorder which is equipped with an RTL1283 decorded CPU for transfer working. The recording format is MPEG2.

incredible content, I hope you grow in the future and continue making videos!

Dude ! Lovin' the Shin Godzilla poster in the background ! Cool stuff! I'm planning on experimenting with doing something like this but just audio for recording music.

Since you used a Thunderbolt cable, could you capture this via Premiere Pro or iMovie?

Good times, fun post to watch, thanks for putting it up there. I trust you FF and rewound the blank tape before you recorded on it. And of course, cleaned the VHS heads.

Hi-Fi VHS is on par with CD for sound quality. You can even get rudimentary surround sound on VHS with Dolby Pro-Logic which is pretty effective.

v/h/s franchise is going to get a full vhs convert thanks to you. picked up 8 blank vhs from value village for 3 bucks today.

Would you be able to use a USB to composite converter instead of converting to HDMI and then composite?

What a blast To the past.. very insightful 😂

I saw that at about the time stamp 3:18 your TV screen showed a NO SIGNAL screen. I have had the same problem with trying this method where my footage will record for a certain amount of time and then switch to that NO SIGNAL screen, effectively ruining the smooth recording process. I was wondering if you found a way to overcome this, and if so I'd like to know how to fix it. Thanks!

I used an hdmi adapter to hook up a chrome cast directly to my crt. Then record from there. The adapter I has does a good job of rescaling the image to 4:3 so no editing is needed via computer.

The way i normally convert from digital to analog is I take my video file, throw it in itunes, convert it to work on ipod, throw it on my ipod, connect my ipod to a dock with video out, connect the video out to my vcr, of course i cant get audio through because an ipod dock already has a speaker and no analog audio out so i just record the speaker audio through a microphone connected through a dac that coverts it to analog rca, which is now not really in sync but its fine its the easiest way to do it...

this helped me with getting my dvds onto vhs.

You don't need the hdmi2av also for the VHS-Digital conversion, a simple USB based video grabber will also do, there is very little if any quality loss, but i guess use it if you have it haha

Bravo! Well done!

Theoretically, this would work for an iPad / tablet correct? To record the screen to VHS / VCR?

How did you get your Mac to display on the TV? I can't get mine to display on my TV.

I'm not sure if there is a way to send a computer display to composite, while simultaneously recording the crt to obs.

So before I try to do this, how many tapes did u go through before u got a good tape

Glad I'm not the only one who edits photos in premiere/after effects instead of photoshop lol

what kind of paper did you use for the cover?

Do you have a link to the VHS template. Im doing something similar with my arcade bar documentary Token Taverns.

With the red and yellow cables for VCR, mine only has 3 at the side of the VCR audio R and L so where do i plug the wires in?

THANK YOU!! SO COOL :D

oh hey, what paper did you print the case out on? Did you use super glue to finalize it?? I was thinking minimum 80lb photo (MATTE) paper??

what happened at/what was the fix for 5:05 bc I'm having this problem

Can you please add the tv that you use?

Since you did it on a TV/VCR combo, couldnt you just use an HDMI to AV cable and just hook it uo that way? Or do you absolutely need that converter adapter?

Omg this video is amazing!!!

well, a easier version is if you have a camcorder, and it has a port with AV, you can find a cord to connect to the camera to the VCR. you may have to search online for the cable and camera, but it’s the easiest way I know.

Even tho I was born in 2008, I still grew up with vhs and crt tv's

I've been trying to do this same thing with hdmi2av, I'm about to try it with a stronger converter, but how do you tell the computer to actually send the signal to the vcr? Is there specific software or is the converter supposed to be making that happen?

So if i have a hdmi and a av input on my tv i can do it with out adapters

Love this video! I have a question, can this work on a separate vhs player? Or does it need to be connected to a crt in order for it to work?

@ryangodoy

Should work through a separate vhs player as well

can you also do this with a phone??

interesting idea, though I'm going to simplify it using an Easy Cap A/V to USB to my Panasonic VCR (which will also be connected to my TV using another set of RCA composite cables). hopefully it works. (while I'm at it I'll be transferring DIY game movies such as The last of us, Left Behind, Republic Commando, FNAF Security Breach, Half Life, Fallout, MLP, and Duke Nukem).

I have a vhs player that i hook to the tv, would that work aswell?

How do you stretch the video in premiere?

Thanks for saying WHAT to do, not just what You did

Does anyone know what the music playing during the process of digital to vhs?

What did you print it on?

My all time favorite movie is Patriots Day, which came out in 2016, I’m gonna try to follow what you did and attempt to convert it to VHS. I’ll update my comment once I’m done with it or have any luck!

Great video could you make a second one straight to the point no figuring it out kinda like a howcast video steps and possibly record the whole movie make it an actual movie to watch you have inspired me to start making a wall off new movies on VHS tapes that's awesome never been done

For the real try hards get a super vhs player with tbc. It makes for a much cleaner picture. You can also get an external tbc for your vcr if it has s video in and out.

What dimensions did you stretch your movie to so that it would adjust to the CRT correctly? I posting this comments 3 years after you released this video so I'm not expecting you to remember the exact dimensions lol

I’m having no issues with video, but struggling to get clean sound.

I just record put mp4s on a usb drive and plug it in my xbox 360, bc the 360 has the right output to record onto a vcr, its pretty simple if u just have that stuff laying around

i think it would be fun to stick a VERY modern movie or tv show or youtube video or something on a vhs and give it to a goodwill, imagine someone buys some unlabeled tape and they play it and its just like some mr beast video or something

i don't recommend using a VHS-CRT TV combo, bc they have poor audio and sometimes worse image quality.

Best way I've found to do this is to use a ps3. Put your video file on a usb, plug it into the ps3, analog output to vcr, play your file and boom.

The ps3 is my goto for recording to VHS, it outputs all the analog signals you'd want, has great media server/home network functionality built-in, and are super easily modded for further functionality. Plus they can show up dirt cheap!

Ok so SOMEONE PLEASE answer me this: I’ve tried multiple converters, tapes, VCRs, TVs, and AV cables. I can get my computer’s screen/video to record onto a tape via a VCR, but there’s never ANY sound on the recording. However, the sound comes through the TV’s speakers when I’m playing the video on my laptop. So sound must be transmitting through my HDMI port. It just will NOT record sound onto a tape. If I insert a pre-recorded tape into the VCR, it plays everything fine. Video and sound are both there. It’s just whatever I TRY TO RECORD. Someone PLEASE help me fix this!

Hello! So I know this is like a year old, but maybe someone will come a long and answer my question. So I have been trying to do this for a couple weeks now and have had mostly success except in one are. I am only recording in black in white. Now before I go further let me explain that I am using a Sony SLV-N55 VCR with a Sceptre TV screen. I have also tried both the NTSC and PAL settings on my adapter and nothing seems to be working. For a while I was able to get some color off of NTSC, but when I tried to record 2 hour long thing the color cut out after about 15min of recording. Should I try a new VCR? Or does anyone have any other suggestions? Edit: OH I also forgot. The color is coming through fine on the screen itself. Its only when I try to record that the tape just doesn't do color.
