Review on I-o DATA GV-USB2 Video Capture Device with USB Connection by Jonathan Lamp

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great for capturing lossless video from an analog source

The need to convert analog sources such as old VHS tapes, 8mm tapes, etc. to a digital format is becoming increasingly important. Since many of these tapes contain priceless memories, it is important to be able to reproduce them accurately. With the GV-USB2 recorder, you can record precisely in lossless format with excellent image quality and reliable A/V synchronization. The device itself has a composite input as well as S-Video, both of which are available on analog playback devices. It connects to your computer using a standard USB connector, eliminating the need for proprietary connectors or connections. The device works well with the included software, but also with a number of freely available video recording programs such as VirtualDub or AmarecTV. codec and it worked flawlessly. Picture quality is excellent and audio/video synchronization is maintained even after more than 2 hours of continuous recording. Please note that the packaging and all instructions, including instructions, are written in Japanese. However, a quick search online will take you to a page with English installation instructions. All in all, I highly recommend the GV-USB2 for analog video capture. It is very affordable compared to other products available and works very stably.
