ClearClickVideo to USB 1080P Audio Video Capture & Live Streaming Device - Input HDMI, AV, RCA, S-Video, VCR, VHS, Camcorder, Video8, Hi8, DVD, Gaming Systems - USB-C Plug & Play

I have a bunch of old family videos we recorded over the years. I have vhs tapes, mini-dvi and 8mm. Trying to get all of these copied and saved to my local storage system was something I wanted to do for awhile and after contacting several different outfits that provide this as a service I decided I would save on the high cost of paying someone else and do it myself.I was a bit concerned about how well this would work because I noticed a few negative reviews that talked about it working for a little while and then no longer working again. Thankfully I did not have any issues at all.Connecting this device up is extremely easy. You connect the USB adapter to your PC (either USB-C or use the included adapter to convert it to USB-B) It has 5 inputs, 1 HDMI in, AV in and S Video in. One of my camera's was just AV in and my other was both s video and avi. In both cases the video and sound transferred with no issues.To handle the conversion you will need to download an awesome piece of software called OBS Studio. This is free/open source software and it works very well. I had to adjust the settings to get the audio correct. You can contact OBS Studio support or ClearClick support in the event you run into questions or an issue. Both are very helpful and respond rather quickly.I was able to convert 8- 8mm tapes and 12- mini dvi tapes over to digital. One thing I wish I had done back in the day was purchase cleaning tapes because after sitting for so long my camera's all needed some good cleaning.My next challenge will be converting all of our VHS tapes to digital. This adapter will handle that as well!Great product for the home user that needs to convert their old home videos!

This ClearClick Video USB-C Converter is a fantastic tool for digitizing old media. Super easy to use—basically plug and play, and it works seamlessly with various input sources.There’s a slight learning curve just because there are so many options, but that’s actually a huge plus! Once you get the hang of it, the flexibility is amazing. Whether you’re working with VHS, camcorders, or other analog sources, this device handles it all smoothly.Great design, solid performance, and a must-have for anyone looking to convert old media with ease!

This didn't seem to work at first. I had video, but no audio. It turned out there are a bunch of System Preferences to set on MacOS 15.2 that were initially set wrong. After fiddling around in bull-headed mode, I emailed tech support. After a few back-and-forths and emailing them sample files, they traced the issue and told me what to change in Settings. Voila! Sound and video. This product comes with a license to download OBS, the Open source Broadcast Studio software. OBS is pretty powerful stuff. You only need a small portion of its capabilities to work with this device, but it does the job with good flexibility. If at first you don't get what you need, work with the settings to refine the results.

Glad I bought it. Since I got it, I’ve been digitizing old home movies saved on video tapes nonstop. From VHS, VHS-c, and MiniDV. The digitized output looks great.

Great product. Easy to setup and easy to use. Purchased it to convert about 20 old VHS tapes into digital format. I have a Macbook Air running OS15. Had zero problems getting the Mac to recognize the converter device, installing the software that I downloaded from on line, and setting it up. I was up and running in about 10 minutes. The only thing that I played with was the video settings resolution. Tried different ratio settings and finally settled on 1920x1080. Even though the original VHS tapes were recorded to a 4:3 aspect ratio I found that recording to a 16:9 ratio provided the best quality video with minimal distortion due to the ratio difference.

Video works just fine but I cannot get the audio to transfer over at all. The manual even says something like “don’t worry, you won’t hear the audio at all when it transfers, but it will be there when you play back the recording.Total lie.I’m totally disgusted with this product. It should be so easy to transfer a video. What a waste of my time and money I wasted all day with this broken garbage.

My wife and I have tons of camcorder tapes (multiple types) starting more than 30 years ago. We decided to digitize them, and It was too expensive to send the tapes to a service. We still have the original camcorders, so we decided to do the conversions ourselvesWe bought a different product first because it was cheaper. It was really difficult to use, even for me--a life-long tech enthusiast, PC builder, and software architect. I tried multiple cables, different software configurations...everything I could think of. Nothing worked well. So we returned it and bought the ClearClick Video to USB 1080P AV Capture device.From the moment I plugged it in, it was perfect. The device was auto-recognized on my machine. The OBS software (open source) was easy to configure. And the YouTube videos provided by ClearClick were easy to follow.All of my recordings (even the first one) have been perfect. I couldn't be happier with this product.

I had some old VHS tapes that contained some video of my kids when they were very young. I had long since abandoned the old VHS like most people because you had to rewind, fast forward, pause, etc. and it was painful to deal with them. I dug out my old VHS player and to my surprise it still worked enough to get the video transferred to disk. The OBS editor that you can download with this device makes it easy to transfer and do some editing. Once it is on disk you can use multiple video editors to get rid of scenes you don't need and enhance the ones you really want to keep. You can then send to family, YouTube, Instagram or TikTok. The sound is amazing that came across in the disk video. There are more expensive units out there but this one was a great value and does exactly what I wanted to do.
