whats peoples opinions on the Blackmagic Design Teranex - im thinking of getting one for my vhs and video transfers or are there better alternatives for my money - i hope lord smurf can have some input on this

it's a studio quality live video converter - it doesn't help capture anything.

i thought of using to help upscale from sd to hd !!

You can do that just as well in software if you don't need it to be realtime.

ok and thank you for your reply - maybe i will just upgrade my capture device then

LOL if you have $1700.00 for an upscaler by all means go right ahead, it probably does a good job

Blackmagic Intensity Pro/Shuttle has this functionality and cost much less. This upscale function it's garbage by the way, there's no options to deinterlace before upscaling it.

If you capture a VHS with upscale on, there will be no way to deinterlace it correctly later. You'll end up with a big image with huge scan lines across the whole screen.

Use avisynth to upscale your stuff.
