My extra hardware is now almost gone.
The DataVideo TBC-1000 is one of the best TBCs for VHS conversion work. It was discontinued for DataVideo in the 2000s, and is not sold often. Months can go by, and you'll never see one on
eBay (and when you do, it's untested and missing the power supply -- which is never good).
- I just finished testing this, and all s-video and composite connections work great.
- The power supply is included.
- And it has almost no cosmetic wear, just a few light scratches on the top. (As careful as I try to be with my video hardware, it can be really hard to avoid scratches to heavy VCRs and TBCs in metal cases.)
Finding one in this condition is not something you'll find often.
I can add photos if needed.
