StarTech.com S-Video or Composite to HDMI Converter with Audio - 720p - NTSC & PAL - Analog to HDMI Upscaler - Mac & Windows (VID2HDCON2)

Fantastic quality when playing a Sega Dreamcast on an LG 4K tv via HDMI. Picture quality is excellent and much better than I expected. I have only just started using the unit, so can’t comment on reliability, but for ease of use and quality is excellent.

Tut was es soll mehr aber auch nicht. Habe diesen Artikel mit anderen verglichen und habe keinen Mehrwert festgestellt die Qualität ist eins zu eins gleich wie andere Geräte zu unterschiedlichen Preisen. Hatte mir hier aufgrund des Preises mehr Bildqualität erhofft man sieht den Unterschied zwischen Komposit und S Video deutlich wenn man weiter weg geht ist das Bild auch in Ordnung (selbst bei großen Fernsehern) so wie man es früher auch kannte es muss jeder selbst entscheiden ob er sich dieses Gerät zulegt oder nicht da jeder anders sieht

Su iMac 2021 M1 non sono riuscito a farla funzionare, non viene rilevata come periferica, restituita

Petit équipement bien fini et livré très rapidement. Pour ma part je l'utilise pour recopier d'anciens formats vidéo sur un enregistreur HDMI. Cela fonctionne parfaitement, à recommander.

I have been searching for options to convert old family videos from VHS to digital and have settled on this Startech unit. Short answer; it's a very well made unit that performs the task well. My other attempts involved several other devices and methods. First one was a Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge. That device takes composite video and converts it to a DV stream on fire-wire. I captured the stream with either Adobe Premiere (Elements) or Virtual Dub. Overall video quality was decent but not quite as good as the original VHS played directly to a TV. Also, finicky and sometimes returns an error and the recording dies. Also, several artifacts that appear such as image-tearing along the top or bottom of screen. Also tried a Diamond VC500 (composite video to USB), capturing with Cyberlink. Same issues as the DV bridge and very visible loss of quality, including pixelation. Also had problems with audio not staying in sync with the video. I've also tried DVD recorders. They are stable but also did not produce a quality that matched the original source. I also tried a budget HDMI upscaler (little square box, about $30 on Amazon) but the image quality was horrible. Enter the Startech: I bought it in part based on my experience with other devices made by them that performed very well. I am not disappointed with this device. Very solidly built metal case and high quality receptacles, etc. It will take either composite or S-Video input. I am using the composite. I send the HDMI output to an AGPtEk HDMI capture device (model VG0020?). The AGPtEK is dumping directly to a USB thumb drive. The main benefit of this Startech is that it seems to be absolutely reliable; NEVER dropping out due to any bad sync pulses or other timing issues related to the source. Also, absolutely none of the tearing or other distortion artifacts I experienced with the other methods. Also, no visible pixelation at all in the resulting file. My 60 year old eyes judge the overall quality as nearly equal to the VHS playing directly to a TV. Never have any audio/video sync issues. The resulting files are quite large (I am using a 128 GB thumb drive). Your 4:3 aspect ratio video will end up stretched horizontally. No problem; I can easily "interpret footage" within Adobe to easily convert back to 4:3 ratio.
