Roxio Easy VHS to DVD 3 Plus | VHS, Hi8, V8 Video to DVD or Digital Converter | Amazon Exclusive 2 Bonus DVDs [Windows]

I had to purchase this item from Amazon USA and did not realise that there was a large handling fee and for purchasers in UK makes this product expensive. It was unavailable on Amazon Prime UK. As software, it is super and I used a Video recorder purchased for £3 in a charity shop. The instructions are clear and are completely build in. I would seriously recommend this software & its hardware. However, the cost is high to buy for the US.

I love how simple this was to use and set up. Step by step instructions once downloaded. I can finally watch old home vhs movies.

Ive used several different video transfer systems over the decades. This system is very easy to transfer videos to the computer. As fare as transferring them to DVD, I have not tried that yet.

It worked. It is easy to use. I installed the software from Roxio site, rebooted and it worked fine. The app doesnt have many options but that was the least of my concerns. Audio and video quality matches what you would expect from digital 8 video, in my case. If you just want to watch the video on your screen then there are $10-$12 options out there. However, if you want to convert and digitize the video then this is a good option.

I have windows 10 and kept getting the no video signal signal error. I tried the tech support (Corel) but it took almost 3 weeks before they got back to me and by then I had figured it out. Once it is up and running it works well enough. The software editing is pretty basic but it does the job. *If you are getting the no video signal error its a windows setting. Go to search and type privacy. Scroll down to App Permissions and turn on Camera Control and Microphone Control. This should be in the general help section but is not and would have saved me a few days of messing around.* Pros: Works decent, easy to use, no software key needed just have to plug the device in when downloading the software Cons: Can be more difficult to set up on Windows 10 than it needs to be, Tech support

The instructions to burn a functioning DVD are useless. I have used the SW to convert old home movies to so type file, but then when u burn to a DVD it will not play on any DVD player I own or my friends. I have sent countless mails to tech support & get zero answers, just questions that clearly indicate either they have no clue or cannot read. I almost sent a reply for them to check a box “I am not a robot” Very, very disappointed. I own a Roxio SW that I converted my vinyl albums to digital and was AAA rated, which is why I bought this product.

I needed to digitize some old VCR tapes, and another product I bought was pitiful in terms of picture quality and features. This Roxio product does a much better job of digitizing the same VCR tapes playing through the same VCR deck onto the same laptop. I havent gotten deep into the various editing feature yet, just very happy to have decent picture quality at a reasonable price.

The product did transfer our VHS tapes from the player, Hi8 8mm tapes from the recorder, and 60DV tapes from player. Very slow, takes three times to save compared to length of video. Had some color issues even using the software enhancement features. The most frustrating part is no way to close the software when done using it. Have to ctrlaltdel, open task mgr, end task of Roxio software!!! Why? Yes, it works, but perhaps a more expensive option would have been better.

Very poorly designed, their install instructions doesnt walk you thru what you need to know to use the program and is very glitchy! Unable to play DVD from any DVD player on TV after burning to disk from their program! Would not recognize my DVD player/Burner! And of course, Microsoft doesnt feel its compatible with windows 10! I had to drag and drop the file from the desktop on my laptop to my DVD burner that my laptop did recognize and use the Any DVD FROM MICROSOFT to play the VHS video on the laptop, again not on a TV! Their customer service only put in a service request ticket and told me someone would contact me, no technical help at all!

I managed to get about 20 hours of VHS video captured without too much difficulty. Windows did an update, about the end of January. Now I cant record for more than one/two seconds of video. I tested the Hardware with the open source OBS Studio and it captures fine from the Roxio device. But OBS filters out my DateStamps that I have. Computer is a Ryzen 5 5600X with Radeon 5500XT card with 32G+ of RAM. Have gotten frustrated with Roxio on this. Ive reported the problem to Roxio Support, but its been 2 weeks and no fix from them. Initially I had an older Nvidea 950 card in my computer... So, 90% of my 20 hours of captures were with that video card. The Denoise and Fix-Color enhancements in the Roxio software were decent given the age of the videos I was trying to capture. But since the Roxio SW doesnt work. I probably would have been better served to by a generic Video Capture device, and figure out how to use OBS Studio. Roxio support tells me to uninstall the SW and Re-Install with a reboot between. Ive done that multiple times and re-installing what is obviously a broken application does not fix the problem. Ive attached a screen shot, Notice how on the right hand side I have multiple video capture attempts with less than 1 second captures. To summarize: Capture Device works (even with OpenSource tools), Roxio VHS to DVD software doesnt currently work.
