INOGENI VGA2USB3 for VHS capture?
 

I am curious to know if an "INOGENI VGA2USB3 - VGA to USB 3.0" would be a good choice to proceed to the capture of my VHS tapes from my JVC HM-DH40000U?

I know I would need an s-video to VGA adapter or maybe an RGB to VGA adapter (the JVC HM-DH40000U has a Y-Pb/Cb-Pr/Cr output) to connect to the VGA input of the INOGENI VGA2USB3.

I am curious about the frame buffer stated: "Digital Fluid technology - Internal frame buffers maximize frame rate with any PC" can it act as a frame TBC ?

I know it can't use copy protected sources but it doesn't matter to me, all my tapes are unprotected.

Does anyone know this INOGENI VGA2USB3 ?

Not at all. You need a known quality capture card, not whatever this is (comp/VGA). Even worse, that thing is a ridiculous $450 (+tax/ship) MSRP.

Frame buffering is not TBC.
FYI: Inability to remove "copy protection" is a sure sign of not being a frame TBC.

@lordsmurf
Thank you for your answer.

Yes it is expensive, but if it acted as a frame TBC... this price would have been very affordable...

Actually I already have a very good capture card: AIW 9600 XT installed in an old dedicated P4 3.06ghz and running WinXP home sp2 minimal with Virtualdub.

All I need is a TBC-1000 but I absolutely can't afford one (even temporarily until a resale) living on a very small pension. So I should capture without a frame TBC...

Well, there's still some options between TBC-1000 and nothing. That's a wide difference. For example, ES10/15 and DVK, few other items.

It also depends on if you insist on s-video, or will do composite to get a cheaper TBC. (Composite is not inherently bad or too soft, devices are. Certain good VCR, TBC or TBC(ish), capture card, composite can be fine.)

Part of it depends on PAL or NTSC, so which are you?

All my VHS are in NTSC like my equipment.
They were almost all recorded in SP mode and have not been often viewed, and stored in good conditions (for a long time). The vast majority are in VHS but many are in S-VHS. Most of them were recorded on professional machines in TV production companies.

I don't have an ES10/15 and DVK but I do have a TOSHIBA DR430 kc.

But it seemed to me that these machines only offered a line TBC at best.... Which I probably already get better with my JVC HM-DH40000U.

JVC D-VHS deck has line TBC, no frame sync.
ES10/15 has strong+crippled line TBC, with a non-TBC frame sync.
Toshiba DR430 has nothing.
Some devices can add a weak frame sync TBC (better than none at all).

VGA has its own standards and weird resolutions, Not related to VHS in any possible way, Going from S-Video to VGA to digital creates a mess that is not easy to fix.
