USB-Live2 Capture RCA S-Video

Got this to replace a Dazzle DVC100 video capture because it wouldn't work on Windows 7, and this product really does the trick. The install of the WinTV product was fine (check the site for updates though), as was the also-bundled ArcSoft Showbiz video-editing software. I use WinTV for capture, and it produces great quality standard-definition captures for use elsewhere, and that's all I wanted from it. I have a few niggles, but I didn't down-star the product because I can live with them... First, when recording from some composite video source with WinTV, you can't put a duration in which means you have to stop recording manually. I wrote a little DOS batch job that counts down a duration and stops the Windows service "HauppaugeTVServer", and that sorted that out (comment-me your e-mail address if you would like this code). Second, the ShowBiz video-editing software (which can also record from the card) refuses to produce a widescreen 16:9 capture. I'm only a bit bothered because this software DOES have a duration feature so it'd be useful; I'm talking to their support to resolve this at the mo... Thirdly, it would have been nice if the product had used H264 in its recording, since you can get a heck of a lot more on a DVD (for example), if that's your thing. I think the more-expensive Hauppauge offerings do this, so I'll not hold it against this product. So, that's it. Great value, and works fine within its specification.

Recently converted around 13 old VHS-C and Hi8 tapes to my PC using this converter. The converter itself is nothing else but great! However, the software is horrible (my opinion). I used this converter with Open Broadcast Software (OBS) software wich is a free to download, aswell to get the files to .mp4 and it has been running flawless. Hardware 5/5: No complaints. Would however be nice if RCA male - male was included. Software 2/5: It works with their own software, but it will give you very large files, and a not so common filetype wich wont be playable in some devices.

Nie czyta formatu PAL60, mimo że producent deklaruje taką możliwość.

Terrible product. The first one I ordered had enormous jittering and a shaking image. Amazon replaced it for me, but the second one has the same issues, albeit slightly better. Still unusable though. I bought this as an upgrade for my cheap EZcap device, but it's certainly not.

He dado muchas vueltas para lograr instalarlo en mi Windows 10 y al final lo conseguí. Primero hay que descargar e instalar el driver que se llama Hauppauge Capture for USB-Live2 (version 40257) que se encuentra en la web oficial de Hauppauge, una vez instalado conectando la capturadora a un puerto USB 2.0 (aunque dice que también vale en USB 3.0) hay que instalar otro programa, el WinTV v10 (versión 40287) que sirve para sintonizar y grabar a ordenador... Con esto ya podrás aplicar el número de serie que viene escrito en un papel dentro de la caja de tu aparato y funciona perfectamente tanto como video compuesto como por S-Video. Para pasar de vídeos VHS, Beta o cámara antigua de cinta este programa es lo más ideal para hacerlo, hace poco había comprado otro aparato de solo 13 euros y nuevo de paquete, pero su capturadora es un auténtico desastre ya que si la cinta de VHS no está en buenas condiciones, se distorsiona los colores o algo peor... El WinTV USB-Live 2 es lo más adecuado para esta función de pasar viejas cintas a ordenador a pesar de que es complicado instalarlo en un Windows 10, pero tiene que ser con los drivers más recientes que existan.
