    If anyone has a problem with downloading the software off of the CD, If you have the adapter plugged in, It will work with your camera application on your computer, If you have a camera on your computer flip the camera the other way and it will recognize it, you also need to go into your volume input settings and select "Microphone" that will give it direct audio from your computer, and you can just press record and get your footage.

      I checked the DigitNow website, but I could not find the Video Grabber software available for download. You could try contacting DigitNow support. Alternately, you could use an external optical drive to install the CD. You can find one of these for as little as $16 on Amazon. Personally, I would just use different software. There is nothing special about the Video Grabber 2.0 software that comes with this device. I would suggest using OBS or even the Windows Camera app to capture footage with this device.

    Hi - Hoping I can get some help here please. I have connected the device (DIGITNOW BR117) via composite leads/scart adapter to my VHS player however the video does not show up on the software "honestech VHS to DVD"
    Composite leads are connected to the adapter on one end which feeds directly to my laptop (Windows 11) via USB. The other end of the composite leads are connected to the scart adapter which feeds in to my VHS player.
    When I open the software which has installed successfully, only the sound plays when I play the video from the player, there is no video shown within the software.
    When I proceed to record, the output is in black and white regardless of selecting NTSC or PAL. I have used the same composite cable and scart adapter and connected it to my TV and it works fine.
    I have not used the S-Video cable yet as this was not provided however when looking at the options it appears the input source cannot be changed due it being greyed out and locked to composite.
    Any suggestions or help will be highly appreciated.

    Note:
    I was conect vcr directly to home LCD TV
    so vcr run vhs tape exactly
    I guess that may i face ths problem due to old model vcr ..?
    Am i right or wrong

    • @ThriftyAV
      @ThriftyAV  Před 3 lety +1

      To troubleshoot the capture device, you can hook up a different video source that you know works like a DVD player, game system ,etc. To troubleshoot your VCR, you can hook it up directly to a TV set. To troubleshoot the software, you can use Windows Camera App or OBS Studio. If this device is faulty, I would ask the person who gifted it to you if it can be returned.

      It is a "not ideal". You COULD feed a video signal from some other device like a DVD player with your tape audio, create a MP4 file, then strip the MP3 audio from the MP4, but this is a lot of hoops to jump through and you would end up with a MONO (not stereo) audio file when you are done.

    The software on these things are forever being updated due the PC/Mac updates. This renders the software obsolete and customer service for these devices is next to useless; they do not update software due to cost. Instead they offer a newer version for new cost. Roxio are shocking, keep well away from them. my advice is to get a stand alone device that does a great job and doesn't need software. More expensive, but it will never need updated software ..... that you cant get.
