VIDBOX VHS to DVD 8.0 Deluxe

Starting at the Beginning and why I purchased. Wanting to transform my video tapes of family events and put them on CD. Also wanting to make CDs out of some tapes and LPs. I tried the cheap knock-offs for 11ish dollars...didnt work. Narrowed my choice to this and Roxio (I had used a previous version a few years ago). So I called Vidbox to insure this product would do what I wanted(I also wanted to see if customer service exists). I actually talked to a live human who I could understand. A HUGE PLUS. Did the same with Roxio and was directed to their online chat. The chat gave me a message about too busy and they will get back to me. A Day later they sent me a satisfaction survey....Dont bother. So Vidbox it is...easy install. Have Windows 7 64bit and installed perfectly. Didnt have to go hunting for drivers. Transferring From Camcorder...I use the advanced and this product is easy.. I followed the available help user guide and now have 7 DVDs. The look great. Had an old family recorded Christmas tape from decades ago that when played on tape seemed a little too high pitched. So easy to load onto Computer with this product,and easy to make CDs. Converted from WMA form to WAV then loaded into Audacity(free download) to edit the speed and now am happy.. Buy

Ive used this for just about 4 hours of video conversion. I have a Sony Hi8 HandyCam DCR-TR7000 using the S-video and RCA type audio cables. Simple to use - hook it up, set up the record program, hit play ... and it records. The end product is very good. Not as good as if the original was from a digital format and not tape, but it is very close. One piece of advice - when you are setting up to record and you are asked to enter the length of the recording - make sure you know the length or estimate more time. This feature is great if you want to leave and let it do its thing and come back whenever yo fell like - the recoding will stop at the time you set. But if the video is longer and the set time is shorter, it will stop recording! You can bypass that step and go straight to endless record, but only use this you are going to monitor the progress. You can stop and start a any point using this method. The only problem I have had thus far was the initial install. I had to run it several times. Twice to get the drivers to install correctly and then two more times for the software to identify my device. Since then, no problems at all.

Worked as described with Windows 10. After false starts because of DVD writer and with help from LIVE tech support was able to copy my collection of VHS tapes.

I have had this product since 2018. I have used it on a number of devices over the years. Having bought a new laptop, I needed help with getting the product to work correctly on it. It seemed that no matter what I tried, it would not work. Then I emailed tech support at vidbox.company. They responded quickly and gave me numerous options to fix the connection issues. It all worked well, just have a minor tracking issue left, due to the new laptop using an AMD Athlon Gold processor. The issue is minor. I learned that this processor does not do well with high demand programs. This product, which does work quite well, works best with an Intel processor.

Used with Windows 7, 64 bit OS and a 15 year old VHS. I had only unedited transfers from VHS direct to DVD to do, and it did this easily and flawlessly. Very simple to use for this purpose, but I have not tried its advanced features.

Impressed with the way this converter software and device has evolved from version 3 that I purchased 2 plus years ago. This new (Latest) version software makes video transfer a breeze in all ways. Well worth the price for all it does and all that is included. Great for converting VHS as well as 8MM video to newer formats to stream, burn to DVD or watch directly on TV..And yes, shipping was as always super fast.

First off, I want to say this company has excellent customer service. A human in the United States answered the phone and was extremely helpful and they have late business hours and work weekends too. Very impressed! I only gave this product 4 stars because as you play the tape on the software it distorts the picture quite a bit which is very irritating and disappointing. They suggested I clean the heads inside the VCR which I admit hasnt been used in years so it could be dusty. Havent tried that yet. Their software also adds some audible noise and distorts the sound quality a little. I guess I could pay a professional company up to $10 a tape to do it but Im not willing to spend the money. Program is super easy to use! I used it with Windows 10 without needing any updating of the software or drivers.

It does the job really well and I dont have to pay someone to do it for me. It is time consuming to transfer VHS over to computer because it is done in real time but worth it in the end. One thing I have noticed is that it seems to degrade the quality a little bit. The preview window of the video looks better than what the final video quality looks like. Because of this, I docked it a star.

I was able to successfully preserve old tapes of my childhood thanks to this product. The software (while visually outdated) ran well on Windows 10. I ended up running the captured content through Sony Vegas to compress the file size and fix some small sound issues (mono sound only coming through one speaker). This was not a quick project and I didnt expect it to be since I had well over 20 hours of tape to go through. But it is 100% worth it. Act now people. Remember, tapes will degrade over time but video files wont.

Pretty easy set up and use for a novice. Exactly what I was looking for. I was able to set it up and capture a video the I got it in the mail. I bought this to digitize a fairly large collection of home footage that has varying quality (some grainier, darker, lighter, etc.). Ive had it for about a month now and captured approx. 6 hrs worth of footage. I did end up scraping about 4 hrs worth because Im still playing around with the settings. Thats more my bad though, I should have waited until I had the software figured out. The only real problems Ive had thus far was shipping from the seller, an operator error on my part, and time to capture the footage.
