  1. Trying to digitize old VHS family records using PC with USB Video DVR and honestech HD DVR 2.5 software.

    The original records were made with a SONY camcorder on 8 mm videocassetes and then copied onto standard full-size VHS cassetes.
    These VHS cassetes show decent quality on a LCD TV, yet honestech HD DVR 2.5 on the computer shows it badly (see https://youtu.be/JrWcz_6J2RU ).
    Tracking does not help. Neither help different honestech HD DVR 2.5 options (brightness, contract, saturation etc).

    I thought that Video DVR & honestech HD DVR 2.5 do not do the job properly. Yet another videotape, which was a copy of a feature film, made on the same VCR shows equally well on TV and on the computer (see https://youtu.be/u2RP-k55Z_s ).
    Could it be that this feature film copy was made using a different format which is compatible with Video DVR and honestech HD DVR 2.5 ?

    Never use the software that comes with the capture device, There is a lot of free software that can do better such as VirtualDub.
