VHS to Digital Converter, Video to Digital Recorder with Remote, Compatible with VHS, VCR, DVR, DVD, Hi8, Mini DV Players, Camcorder, Gaming Consoles (VHS/Tapes/DVD Player Not Included)

The Porta has everything you need to easily convert old vhs tapes to digital. Having the screen made all the difference in the world, especially when tapes had multiple events. I was able to easily see where one event ended and the next one began so I could cue up the tape. I’ve used the other converters without a screen and I never could easily see where I was and what I was recording. This little unit was worth every penny. I had to review over 70 vhs tapes and digitized at least 50 (some had multiple segments that had to be transferred into separate files). Must if my tapes were 30-40 years old and had not been stored in ideal conditions. In spite of some damage from heat and age, the segments that weren’t damaged transferred extremely well. The auto-timer feature allowed me to set the length of time to record and then go do something else, knowing it would stop recording and save the file without me being there. I can’t say enough about how great this little device is. This should be your only choice when digitizing your old tapes!!!

I picked up this VHS-to-digital converter to save some old family home videos before the tapes deteriorated any further. The setup took a little patience, but the included instructions were clear enough to get everything connected. Once I figured out the software, the transfer process was straightforward. The video quality is about what I expected from VHS. It doesn’t magically make old tapes look like HD, but it captures the footage faithfully and preserves those memories in a digital format that can be stored on my computer or backed up to the cloud. Audio stayed in sync during my transfers, and I didn’t experience any dropped frames or crashes. I also like that I can trim and organize the files afterward without having to keep pulling out the VCR. The only downside is that converting happens in real time, so a two-hour tape takes about two hours to digitize. That’s just how this type of device works, not really a fault of the product. Overall, if you have a collection of old VHS tapes and want an affordable way to preserve them, this converter does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I’m happy with the results and would recommend it to anyone looking to save old family memories before they’re gone.

🌟🌟THIS! THIS is what you need if you want the simplest way to convert your family memories on vhs, dvc or any other video media that uses RCA/component jacks. I've been fighting other converter products for mounts to pair with computer, get audio perfectly matched and clear, but this.... WOW! YES, it's a bit expensive, relative to the inferior converters on Amazon, but it's an all- in- one converter and will save your hair from being pulled out trying to figure out all of these other, cheaper products. No computer and no tv needed. It also maintained the aspect ratio of the original 4:3 and its stretched out when playing in vlc. On the 40" tv, it looks just as clear as the original dvc playing on the same screen. Such a life saver. One touch record to mp4. Quickly saves (about 4 seconds), so easy to create individual files between crop/ different segments of same tape. I did a test of a single sort video before getting in for the long haul and the audio and video is super crisp. LOVE IT!! Buy it!! If you have a lot of tapes to convert, you'll definitely not regret it.

This VHS to Digital converter has been great. I have been able to convert a lot of old VHS tapes to digital. I know some reviews have stated it quits or stops but I have not had any problems. I do not have extremely long videos though. I pause between videos to separate each recording so I can rename it to something searchable and I don't have to go through a long recording to get to the video I want to watch. The picture quality on the converter is not as good as the final converted video but it is clear enough and I really only care about the finished product which has been great. I did not have any problems with connecting it to my old VHS recorder, ask the cables I needed were included which was nice. If you want a relatively cheap way to convert your videos I would give it a try.

The Portta VHS to Digital converter is easy to use and seems to do an adequate job of turning my old VHS tapes into mp4 files. I have only two complaints: 1) when the hdmi output is used to pipe the video to an external monitor without sound, the device cuts off ALL audio including Aux out audio by design. Normally the hdmi would provide audio to the monitor but the old monitor I have has no sound and I can’t use audio out to another device for sound. Not a big deal, just inconvenient. 2) Also with hdmi out connected, sometimes the saving of a recording is incomplete and apparently corrupted. I have to re-record the segment and make sure hdmi is not connected. Other than these two things, I have been pretty pleased with the device.

This converter worked very well and it is simple to use. It appears to have functionality that I can use in other video projects as well. Some of my friends have used it, too and were very pleased with it as well.

Wow, I am really amazed how well this product works transferring VCR to USB very easy to set up. Very easy to operate. Just understand that the quality of the transfer may not be as good as the original and it’s kind of expected. Highly recommend this product.

This is a fantastic little digitizer. I have spent at least 18 hours using it and it does very well. I have digitized both VHS and Hi8 using the S-video line. The playback quality is really good, there is no issue with videos with a lot of motion getting blurry like I had with my older computer based digitizer. Keep in mind this does not upscale but it does give you options to change sample rate and resolution of the capture of the device itself which is very nice....there is no degrading between the media on tape to the digitized media which is great. The only issue I have ran into is that some old VHS tapes would have a space that would have data rot and the digitizer would try to sense if the media was NTSC or PAL at that moment and stop recording....this only happened a few times but wasn't a problem since I was monitoring recordings the whole time. Some other great things about this digitizer is that it has a great little internal monitor screen with speaker so you can use this box alone with the VCR or Camcorder or you have the option to plug it into HDMI and actually watch it on a tv while you digitize. I put a 512GB TF card in mine but found it was best to transfer data off TF card after every tape to not get confused of data on card...i don't believe you can rename files on device itself so can get messy with lots of tapes digitized. Each VHS tape is around 10GB of data so you can use a much smaller TF card than what I bought. Overall, I am extremely pleased with this digiter for the money and its very simple to setup and use. Your results may vary based on your VHS data or the VCR you use but my results with S-Video has been very pleasing.

Bra kvalitet, enkel att hantera och att överföra video till usb minne .Jättenöjd

Alles super, Gerät wandelt einwandfrei alles in mp4 um und speichert es auf USB-Stick. Absolut unkompliziert.

It is very good device. I recorded 5 old DV cassette. Then I had a problem with my old camera . Then I fixed my camera. It is working now. The manual is difficult to read . It needs much better explanation as I spent one day to make porta to work again after fixing my camera .

昔撮影した大量のアナログテープ。ミニDVテープやVHSテープ。約20年前のものばかり。 この機器とテープを再生できる機器さえあれば、簡単にデジタル変換、同時にMP4形式でUSBメモリーに保存できました。 ポイントは.ミニDVテープを再生できることと、なんらかの方法で出力できる端子があること。昔の多くの出力端子は、赤白黄色のRCA端子だと思いますが、問題なくいけます。 すごい感動です！

ممتاز سهل الاستخدام وتم تحويل كل ما ارغب في تحويله إلى فلاش ميموري يعمل على اعلى جودة انصح بشرائه
