VHS Conversion – If you want to do it yourself

Digitizing VHS – it sounds pretty complicated. But the basic process is simple: You connect the video recorder to your PC, install the appropriate software and away you go. The digitization is done in real time; that is for every ten hours of video, you need to spend ten hours for the pure conversion. You also have to take into account the time it takes for the setup and the connection of the equipment, the installation of the software and any rework.

If you want your digitized videos to be of good quality you should use high-end equipment. This includes an appropriate VCR, a video card and cable. However, people will often use cheap graphics cards for analogue-digital converters, as most customers only pay attention to the built-in graphics chip. For the best results, a professional software should be used. It will allow you to make improvements, such as brightness adjustment.
