I can't believe the 1990s was 60 years ago tbh

[daxx]

It truly is the easiest method as I think most people are already familiar with OBS. Thank you so much.

This is super useful! I've gotten confused with similar videos, but this is much easier to tackle.
I appreciate you ❤

Just got a camcorder, got all the required supplies. Does this still work?

I have many recordings from me as a baby on VHS. Thank you for this video - I might be able to save a copy of them 🖤 all the best to you.

I noticed you have both the "Audio Input USB" and "Video Capture USB" sound both on at around the 8:30 mark in your vid. I digitized my first vid yesterday using OBS and I got dual unsynced audio on the recording. I then repeated the process with the video capture audio line muted and it turned out great. Wonder why you didn't have this issue with both turned on???

Also, I went through my settings following Tim Ford's channel's recommendations, and holy cow, he had me making all kinds of settings changes. Now I wonder if they were even necessary since you didn't do hardly any of them. Check it out and see what you think.

Hi can i ask what model is this? My mom has one at home which i wanna try to fix it again.

Ideal settings for pal recording to not have black bars at the side? I know pal is 25fps but not sure what the base canvas and output scale should be?

[PopeVisuals]

Any reason that I need OBS or can I just import the footage directly into Premiere Pro from the camera?

[vncgrln]

Hi! Thanks for the video! there are parts of the video that are not colored when being recorded, it becomes black and white but the video being played in video cam is colored and in high quality. The quality of the sound is not too good also. Is it because of the cables or the quality really changes when being recorded?

[yashchittora]

Thanks !!! What are the file sizes you got for 1 hour of recording ?

[Simoniej]

Thank you so much for this video and your channel! I just got a JVC VHS cam for 7 euros on a market and it is complete and taken care of so I am super happy. Which cable would you suggest for a Mac? I would love to still have the best quality as possible (I know it's VHS haha) Thank you x

[PopcornWeasel]

i dont reccomend the elgato capture card as there are weird rainbowy effects when the video is unstable which can happen a lot when recording on a camcorder

[graysontotty]

I’m looking on eBay for a vhs cam recorder and it dosent come with a display cable

[enyafreak]

I have a Panasonic digital palmcorder model PV-L780D and I am trying to figure out how to connect it to a digital converter, as it only has a phone and a/v out jack, both of which do not fit the digital converter that I have, which is an Easier CAP converter. The converter has a yellow, white and red connections, but none of them fit the ports in the palmcorder. Am I missing something? Any help is appreciated.

Works great but audio recorder through my Mac instead of through my vhs camera. How could I change this?
