Hi! I'm Chris Gardner, Your Tech Coach giving you Practical Help for Your Digital Life® since 1996. My opinion is that the Elgato device will do just fine for your needs. Of course you could spend an awful lot of money chasing perfection. There are other stand-alone capture devices that don’t need a computer, as well as higher-end equipment (such as from ). Not as high quality, but then you are dealing with old VHS tapes which aren’t that high quality to begin with. There aren’t a lot of options, but you could try this one at Amazon which converts component to composite (you’ll still need the Elgato device). For folks with old-style component video (red, green and blue RCA cables plus the red/white audio cables), you’ll need a different converter box and Elgato doesn’t have a version of their converter that works with component video.
Other readers may have devices that connect with other types of cables.įor folks with HDMI output players, the Elgato site has other converters that will work fine. Of course, the Elgato device is only for old-style S-video and/or Composite video sources.
