Thanks for the offer but I don't think I'm interested. It's nothing high value, it's just an old TV recording of a car race from the early 2000s. Best of luck in your endeavors though!

No worries!

One additional thing worth mentioning -- I used to have another model of this VCR that I recently handed off to a friend, it was a defective unit that also came from eBay, but the only...

JVC SR-V101US video signal not clean?

Hello all!

So...my third thread within a few weeks. Good grief. After a lot of adventures in attempting video capture and the like, I finally came to a conclusion -- I think my VCR (JVC SR-V101US)...

To my eyes at least it looks no better than GV-USB2. If it is better, it's too inconsequential a difference to me to go through the hassle of installing a second hard drive to it (I guess SD2IDE or...

Sorry I'm a bit late to respond to this! Got caught up in other things last night, haha.

Anyway, that's a bummer about the PCI-e card. Though again at least I'm getting good mileage out of it for...

GV-USB2, AmaRecTV dropping frames, no VirtualDub audio?

Hello all!

Been doing some video captures and unfortunately I've run into another issue after getting one resolved. There was something that concerned me in the back of my mind, and that was...

Oof. That's annoying. Where I was having trouble was that I was setting the *output* settings to TFF, but I didn't realize you could right click video on the timeline, click "Properties", and then...

That makes sense. I did try to flip back and forth between two sources again and I didn't see any drop -- if there was, I certainly had trouble noticing it. But yeah, sounds like it was a much bigger...

So to clarify -- I am using a full size screen here. My 4K computer screen specifically, so that's a pretty hefty amount of upscaling happening. I feel if anyone should be noticing a quality loss, it...

@lordsmurf: Thanks for letting me know! After looking around a bit more on the site, it seems the 600 USB also ignores Macrovision. May go ahead and just use that. I always use VirtualDub to do my...

Hm, turns out it may not be MV after all. Whoops. My bad.

Either way, this still seems to happen on a lot of tapes that are MV-protected, incidentally. Some look perfectly fine and others don't....

Macrovision tapes and white balance?

Hello y'all. It seems we meet again.

So, unfortunately this is where my "it's good enough" attitude comes back to bite me right in the rear. I've been doing video transfer for quite a while...and...

Oh, it's definitely not the Dazzle. As I said, this only happens on linear audio, and only while a tape is playing. When I switch the VCR to hi-fi, it's fine. Plus in the past, I've been able to...
