You can get a BlackMagic Intensity Pro 4K. Comes with breakout cables for composite and component. You can even get the component cables for the Wii as well.

Ah, yes the best recording method in 2021

A couple other ideas for capture:
1. What Technology Connections did in his video (composite to HDMI adapter + a standalone HDMI capture device).
2. The cheapest CamLink clone + the cheapest HDMI splitter (optional) + the cheapest composite to HDMI adapter.

I'm betting the reason it showed Windows Explorer is because explorer used to be intrinsically tied to Internet Explorer, so it was easier for them to open the HTML file directly from an embedded Explorer window.

I Think Realoneplayer is trying to do a IE api call, but it got reused for WE

[EpicTyphlosionTV]

Ah, the Dazzle. Those things that used to cost way too damn much and got knocked off like crazy on Amazon

hi, i m pretty certian it will work with linux. i have a similar device and it just works there, i used the capture function in vlc the last time. i guess you may also use a raspberry pi. with ffmpeg its possible to stream over network for example into obs

4:07 The sample movie is just the QuickTime logo which is animated in low quality with music 😂

Once again providing the best content on YouTube, great work Michael

Ah, composite you were great... 15 years ago

As a personal recommendation, the IO-DATA GV-USB2 is a fantastic capture device. The only problem with it is that is Japanese and all the documentation is in that language, but finding information in English on how to set it up is easy. Bottom line, it works. I use with OBS Studio all the time and it's the best composite and S-Video capture device I've used. I use with old consoles mostly, but the definition of the image is pretty impressive, particularly with S-Video and the framerate is perfect, no issues with stuttering or anything, you can get 60 FPS footage easily from it. It's a lot cheaper than going the HDMI route and it just does the job as it should.

I recently got a DVC-90 for free and I was able to capture video through VLC on a Vista machine. Performance was terrible because the Vista computer has very weak hardware, but VLC might be an avenue worth exploring. I do know I had to set the chroma format to some specific setting. If I have to, I can hook that Vista machine up and check.

Hey man, that same video capture device has also 8 Bit guy! :)

Haven't seen a Windows XP and Zune skin for years!

Love your channel, keep up the good work ❤️

What about those Wii to HDMI adapters? They even let you enable HD TV in settings and it looks much better. Got mine for 10 bucks off Amazon, just a nice thing to have in general when using the Wii on a large TV in general imo. Tests recommended the Portholic one afaik

[TomTomEntertainment]

I use the Elgato HD with the included component/composite breakout cable to record composite and it works great.

If you have an old installer that won’t run, always try to open the installer exe/msi file in 7zip. You might be able to extract the driver files etc.

[JoSephGD]

If I had recommend a capture device for PC, I'd recommend the HDML Cloner Box Pro, since it comes with cables to convert composite, component, and VGA output to HDMI for use on the box.

Download OBS Studio and use the capture card with that.
You already have the drivers so it is absolutely possible and in fact this is what I was doing recording some PS2 games.
