Composite IN vs S-Video IN (using converter wire composite to s-video)

[goal]

Hello

I write for a doubt that I have about to selecting input video TV-Tuner

I want to convert VHS video to DVD video...............

My TV-tuner has two input sources:

1) Composite
2) S-video



My VHs player only has out composite video (no s-video)

I connecting "vhs composite OUT" to " video composite tv-tuner IN "


My doubt is:

Would it be better to connect " VHS composite OUT" to " S-video tv-tunner IN"

by means of a "composite to s-video converter wire " ??????

Thanks you for responding

No. In fact, it will probably make the video worse.

The best thing you can do for VHS capture quality is get a S-VHS deck with s-video output, a line TBC, and noise filtering. It will cost you at least a few hundred dollars for a used one.

Suggest you try the composite to composite connection and determine if the quality is sufficient for your purposes before you go spending a whole lot of money on equipment.
