  Hey there great video, do you have a video on setting up OBS Studio for best results with this hardware?

  I have an old video from back around 1990. It has been kept in a box since then. Any chance that video is still viable?

  Does the same upscaler matter if I go for the Elgato 4k60 pro or HD60 pro? Do I need a "4k" upscaler? Or is it indifferent?

  rather then go to DVD can I just go USB/computer? and about how much space does say a 8hr video take? I have surface pro, just checking if i can use that?

  I would like to hear in this review something technical. Like how those upscalers handle interlace (some don't deinterlace, some do), what is real output resolution (on some 1080p looks more crisp that on others), what sharpening is done (some upscalers have very aggressive sharpening), what colors they are producing (some over saturate, some under saturate). I was thinking that if you have all those products you will show zoomed sample videos from all of them for comparisons.

  Its distorts to 16:9 though, which ruins the original aspect ratio, that is the problem, I dont want anything stretched or cropped out, i'd rather have the black bars on the sides on the video than ruining the video all together for the same of making it HD.

  So we need an upscaler, a time based corrector, and only certain USB capture cards. It seems there is something new I need to keep adding.

  I just downloaded el video capture software to my laptop but I get an error message saying: " Device could not be initialized. Please verify software and driver installation", so I was not able to move foward. I removed it and installed it again but nothing. I have a new laptop -windows 10. I noticed a lot of people were having this issue. Please help!!

  The bluish color on film is normal for a Daylight film (Kodak) you should color correct, but you might check which Kodak film was used because if it was a color corrected D (D=Daylight) it will be bluish, or T (T=Tungsten) Tungsten will be orange and it depends how the DP (Director of Photography, cameramen) shoot it it will shift colors with filters on camera and there are several that shifts a bit the image, with the post process you must think on a Color a correction Software I recommend Davinci (on blackmagic page the simple version is free) - Also if the cameramen did not use any filter you must correct it in post but sometimes no filter on camera is good depends the use and where it was shot (to know where the fils stock is some times on the edge of the film and some times in the white strip before the positive was written)

  upscaler for SD signals? come on ... the SD signal needs only to be preserved as best possible, and deinterlacing treatment need to be done using software ( QTGMC ) .. and pixels needs to be stored at the same format as original source ( pal or ntsc ) .. any other form of things you want to do on analog signal need to be done only when displaying... (not destructive for the original quality) ... if you want to use an hardware upscaler(losing contrast/interlacing quality andf making weird things on white/black side by side pixes) probably you are just an amateur of video editing.

  @ProfBill-ig5ldАй бұрын

  Great video!! I have watch both this review and the one you did on the different upscalers (several times). It has really demystified the topics. I first got a YITROX scaler on Amazon (i already had a better wall wart for it) which I tried out and had pretty good success with. After watching this review, I went out and found the Gefen scaler. I have it connected to my VCR and from there I'm doing the HDMI capture using an Elgato HS60S. I'm using VirtualDub2 to do the capture (I've also tried OBS), and once I figured out the you have to allow camera and microphone in Windows Privacy everything is working. Again, thank you for your review. It's the resolution settings that I'm having trouble figuring out the "best settings". The question is on the Gefen which is the appropriate resolution to use; 800x600, 1024x768, 1600x1200, which are all 4:3 (and how does this match with NTSC which is 720x480). Or is using 720p or 1080p (and how do you keep the 4:3 with the black bars) better? Additionally, which is the best size, Full, Pan, Letterbox, underscan or overscan? Contrast, Brightness, Fine Tune and Color make sense that it's a bit of adjusting the settings based on the original video. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Can't seem to find much out there on the Gefen. Thanks!!

  Thanks for the great videos! I've started the vhs conversion journey with the yitrox upscaler and hd60 pro. However, some doubts about getting the right settings in place remain... Using OBS seems the way to go. But what would be the best choices resolution wise? Setting the yitrox to full 1080@60 output will distort the 4:3 PAL aspect ratio. Would it be better to go for one of the 4:3 outputs, or rescale afterwards in OBS to a 4:3 aspect ratio? Is there a reason to go for 60fps or 50, like 60 is 2x30 from ntsc and 50 is 2x25 from pal?

  320x240 is not the VHS resolution. Both Ealcheapo and Elcrapo USB devices are as the name suggests. Is Elcrapo paying you? The final method distorts the picture to incorrect aspect ratio. Bst option is to just convert to DV, or take an interest in the RF archiving.

  Very good description of how to record a video of an 8 mm or super 8 film. I learned the hard way, showing the movie onto a white sheet of paper and recording it with my video camcorder. Flicker and keystone effect were the main problems. ( Surprisingly an older camcorder produced a picture without flicker- still don’t know why but great). Finally got a Wolverine from Amazon ( or something similar from Amazon), allowed to use a larger roll of film. All in all this gave acceptable quality videos. I still wonder how my Channel 5 (or six or whatever) can seemingly convert film to video in real time.

  One additional item. I recorded sound with my tape recorder and saved it with the hopes of connecting the two together, which I have done. Very, very difficult to synchronize sound with picture, but with an eight-year- old birthday party who cares?

  I'm having good luck using a generic white-box AV2HDMI converter into an HDMI USB capture card. The converter can output upscaled to 720p or 1080p both at 60fps and the correct aspect ratio, but the capture card can capture in all sorts of resolutions, including several in 4:3 ratio. I've ordered a converter with S-video in to see how that fairs in comparison.

  I have an upscaler that only does 16:9, do you have any tips to record this into a 4:3 ?

  8:27 Yeah, because the VCR records in 480i, not in 240p, also the horizontal resolution is more then 320, but it's in analog. The real resolution is arround 400x440i.

  Your videos have been excellent. They have influenced me greatly. Thank you. I recently purchased the Elgato HD60X for VHS/8 mm tape to digital transfers, along with a simple upscaler- and experienced the disappointing 16:9 aspect ratio result. I live in Canada, and the Yitrox upscaler is priced almost as high as the Elgato USB 2.0 capture card (your option "two" in prior video). And there is little reliable alternative to the Yitrox to get the 1024 x 768 (4:3) aspect ratio. Question : since they are priced similarly, can the Elgato USB 2.0, in which you can select the 4:3 aspect ratio, be used as the "upscaler", and then also be connected in sequence to the Elgato HD60X (to late to return the HD60X itself) to enhance the video quality? Thank you for your many replies! And your sage advice.

  Hiya MoJoJoJo... A couple years ago I tried these "KASA" plugs, but like you mentioned, they made it so that you can't use them locally, but are required to use their internet tracking app. Blecch! I replaced them with "KAUF" brand plugs which are based on ESP8266, and had the ability to use HTTP REST API so I could slap it into cron. Works like a charm!

  Please always capture vhs in 4:3 and convert to 960x720 (720P) or 1440x1080 (1080P) because 16:9 looks horrible for vhs, in Obs studio the best resolution is 624x480

  I enjoyed your presentation. When I record a TV program on the VHS/DVD Combo machine, the playback on the DVD is grainy and will these devices improve the picture quality? The input to the Flat screen TV is from a Coaxial cable to the cable box. The Cable Box has an HDMI out port And to the flat screen TV and the picture quality is perfect. The Combo player also has an HDMI out port. I believe the cable box output to the input of the Combo machine is using the RCA composite cables. And the HDMI output from the Combo machine goes into the HDMI port on the back of the flat screen TV. Thank you for your assistance.
