Turn analogue into digital video

There is no easier or more convenient way to transfer home video to your computer. Elgato Video Capture captures your analogue video in the universal H.264 format and sends it to your iTunes or Windows Media Player library. No lengthy re-encoding is required, so your video is immediately ready to playback on your computer; to sync with your iPad or iPhone; to upload to YouTube; and to edit in iMovie or Windows Live Movie Maker.

Put Family Memories on your computer

The era of VHS tapes is winding down, and after three decades there is a lot of video content to transfer for modern playback devices. What’s more, any video stored on magnetic tape (such as VHS, Video8 and Hi8) has a limited life span and deteriorates over time. Elgato Video Capture provides an easy way to bring those precious memories into iTunes or your Windows Media Player library.

Elgato Video Capture is very easy to use. The software assistant guides you through every step, from connecting an analogue video device to capturing video and choosing how you will watch and share it. The software offers a simple tool to trim the beginning and end of the captured video. With just one click, you can add your video to iTunes or to your Windows Media Player library; you can play back the video on your computer or sync it with your iPad or iPhone; you can upload your video directly to YouTube; and you can edit it right away in iMovie or Windows Live Movie Maker.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Easy to Use 27 Dec 2009
    By JD Dieffenbacher
    Amazon Verified Purchase
    Easy set up, easy to use. Quality seems good enough. Some of my tapes are quite old so can't always be sure whether it is the tape or the transfer. I have Final Cut Pro and was able to enhance them a bit with that. Did have problem with the sound recording on some clips. It was either out of sync or garbled and had to go back and record again. Can't tell if it is just a problem when you record longer clips or if it is my tapes (though the sound on the tapes when watching on TV is fine). A good product but only gave it three stars as I think the price is a bit high.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Not cheap - but easy to use 14 Dec 2010
    By D. Thompson
    Amazon Verified Purchase
    I have been looking for a way to transfer both some old VHS tapes and some off-air recorded programmes from my digi-box - I also needed one specifically compatible with my Mac. I had been recommended the cheaper iCapture, but I was unimpressed with some of the reviews - it also seemed rather cheap...

    I'm glad I chose to pay a little more for the Elgato. Using it is dead easy: literally plug in (component or scart to USB2), follow a few basic onscreen checks, and then hit record - the software des all the rest. After it's done it then either saves the file as an MP4 (ready to view in Quicktime or import to iTunes), or ports you into iMovie for editing and ripping to DVD. The quality is good (although it does depend on the quality of the original itself) - and it even works with my digi-box, so I can save a few of those BBC4 folk concerts that have been eating up my HD space ;)

    An excellent product.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Has many uses 6 May 2011
    By diesel
    Works perfectly and I have now archived a ton of VHS that we really did not want to lose. Mostly home movies of the kids etc.

    Once that was done I thought it was going on eBay, but then realised I could copy content from the Sky box! Amazing! All those kids movies clogging up the hard drive are now on the Mac Mini (which we use as a HTPC) and its now permanently connected for this purpose!

    Don't mess about with the cheaper alternatives. The encode quality this gives is amazing.
