[Cin] offtopic: Digitize and record Video with A/D USB adapters

[Terje J. Hanssen]

Something like this?
USB 2.0 Audio/Video Converter - Digitize and Edit Video from Any Analog
Source Including VCR, VHS, DVD
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XJKSJZ8/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_navT_g_DYWFFDKH9ZJY6G1NTTKF


My tape sources are Hi8 and S-VHS, that is S-Video quality between VHS and
DV.

(Also I backed up some music from my old reel tape recorder to "HiFi" HQ
VHS tapes 20 years ago). Og
And I got a working Sony Hi8 tape deck and a Panasonic S-VHS deck on eBay a
few years ago, as players beside my still working Sony Hi8 camcorder.
