That is the reason why is harder to capture successfully with a laptop.Ī powerful CPU helps when using a small USB capture device because software is used to encode the captured video and audio. Laptops only have one hard drive and typically have less powerful CPUs. I have an ATI TV Wonder 600 HD USB, which is very good, but it is now discontinued and probably difficult to find in the EU. One of our members also reported good results with the StarTech SVID2USB2 USB 2.0 Video Capture Cable, but that may not be easy to find everywhere. The Hauppauge USB-Live 2 is good and is sold in many countries. Even if the software that comes with a capture device works, there is often a need to find third-party software that will work better. Capture software is another consideration. All we can do is suggest devices that will not cause problems themselves and provide decent quality output. Can you suggest me an other device that will work without any problems? VHS capture can be difficult, no matter which capture device is used.
