  • Welcome back to my workshop 😁.
    In an attempt to bring you lovely folk some better videos i looked at using my old camcorder (but its far to old).
    But as a result i found a load of old tapes i wanted to transfer to digital format.
    This video shows you how to do this with a VGB100 USB video device.
    I hope this video is useful or at least slightly entertaining.
    Thanks for watching and don't forget to hit the like button (if you liked it that is).
    Hopefully more woodworking videos soon.
    Stay safe in these mad times 😁👍.

    Really enjoyed your common man video and appreciate the time you took to make it. There seems to be hundreds of these devices on the market which all look the same but have varying degrees of quality. I have 2. I have a black Easycap and a white UVC. The Easycap is better because it captures in 1080p and looks decent but the UVC only captures in 720 and doesn't look as sharp. It can be troubling for consumers who don't know for sure what they are getting but I guess that's the free market with all it's perks and flaws.

      Thanks for your comments. Yes it's a minefield of choices with devices like these. You really don't know what you will get until you try. So hopefully doing this type of video can help some people make an informed choice before spending there money 😁. Thanks for watching 😁👍

    Hi, just wondering, since you already captured the video with the USB stick, why don't you use OBS studio (FREE) to get the video and audio from it. The problem is that software on the mini-disk is not compatible with windows but there is nothing wrong with the capture card.

    • @frankslittleworkshop

      Thanks Trucker 😁. Perfectly true, there are a million ways to get the video processed. The actual device works great and for the price its worth trying another software. Thanks for watching Trucker 😁👍

    Frank have you tried some free video editing software from either Windows store and with the capture device look for the firmware update through some of the freeware site or change the settings in Windows to run it in the Windows 7 or 8 format there's away to do this you might have to TH-cam that but there's a lot of possibilities to run the software?

    • @frankslittleworkshop

      Hi James 😁. I did try a couple of different free software versions (cant remember which ones) but they were so full of adverts and "not the best" software, so I had to un-install them. I have now transferred all the videos using the Windows 7 machine so I have deffinatly had my money's worth out of this device. Thanks for watching James 😁👍

      Hi Rita 😁. If your using Windows 10 then it probebly is 🤔. There have been some suggestions for other versions of software to try (see them in the other comments 😁). I will need to try some of them but had some "issues" with my PC 🙁 and need to re install everything, so may be a while. If you have any success please feel free to add an additional comment (it could help someone else). Thanks very much for watching and commenting Rita 😁. Good luck and stay safe 😁👍

    Downloaded all but 2 of my mini DV's last year with it on Win10 perfectly. This year lost the licence key so bought another for a tenner. Just managed to copy them and the same fault occurred. Good while it lasted,. Tested that Debut download from NCH and it worked ok except for a few interlacing glitches.

So I guess it will need to stay as it is. Thanks for the feedback and for watching 😁👍
