ClearClick Video 2 Digital Converter 2.0 Demonstration and Review - Video Tape Digital Converter

In this video, I put the ClearClick Video 2 Digital Converter 2.0 to the test and give my thoughts on it. I do a full unboxing and then show the process of converting some old home videos from VHS tape and 8mm tape using this device.

Will this copy my manufacturer DVD's like Titanic,etc. Or will copy prevention cause the recording to fail?

Great review but am I alone in wanting a greater resolution that 640 x 480 or am I expecting too much?

[@theworldofwebby]

@@Rivenworld you are definitely not alone in wanting higher resolution.

hey there, I just got a sony handycam trv608 and will this work? if so do you have any idea what kinda cords I should buy?

[@theworldofwebby]

@crxssthe5un that should work, and it looks like one of the A/V to RCA cables like I used in the video should work. Something like this: a.co/d/0iSIqEKg

[@itsollieyx3]

My Sony TRV108 camcorder only has the AV/out and no RCA port as well. But I don’t have a cord to connect it to the converter. So will I have to get a 3.5mm AV to 3 RCA cable to connect it to the converter in order for it to work?

[@theworldofwebby]

Yes, the only options for connecting a video signal to this device are RCA and/or S-Video. If I didn't have that A/V to RCA cable, I would have been out of luck.

@@theworldofwebby I don’t know anything about this camera tech, so thank you so much

[@itsollieyx3]

@@theworldofwebby I forget to ask, will any USB work for the converter?

[@Flimpi_]

Could you record from a camcorder without the tape being in it?

[@theworldofwebby]

I haven't tried that yet, but I'll let you know once I get a chance to try it.

[@theworldofwebby]

I just confirmed that you CAN record from a camcorder to this device without a tape being in the video camera. 😀

Do ya kno if this would work wit a classic ps2 sum how 🤔

[@theworldofwebby]

If you have an AV to RCA cable for the PS2, it should work.

​@theworldofwebby I just tried this with a PS1 and Rayman It was promising but 2 things caught my eye. 1) depending on the quality/length, there might be "noise" in audio. Any time there's a signal going in there can be a slight buzzing sound. So far, 2 of the 2 cables I've tested had 1 with slight noise. 2) there's a diagonal bar of what seems to be bad Deinterlacing. Simply put, the PS1 had games that ran is 240p or 480i, sometimes both with certain games using 480i menus and cutscenes (like Silent Hill or Resident Evil). If the game runs in a Interlacing source, hence the 'i', TVs have to process the image to Progressive, P. This can be seen as a shimmering affect, something that CRTs were made with in mind, while digital tvs arent. Now this could be due to firmware updates as the one I have was actually my mother's that I confiscated for gaming purposes. And because she no longer had the time. Anyway, I'm gonna try to sew how to update it and see if that's fixed. Other than that, it works with my Samsung 4k 55' that's around 2017. The only thing is this thing competes with the retrotink 2x pro that's specifically designed for retro gaming. So while you can record with this, you also don't have component/RGB capabilities. You're stuck with Composite (RCA) or s video. But you can record right to UsB or SD so no need for a computer and cheap HDMI Capture card and OBS? This does seem to be low latency so games don't have the added lag many tvs can add through their Anolog ports, due to said processing from I to P.

[@austinfowler2707]

Update: Tried on 4 consoles. All Composite (RCA). Gamecube, N64, PS1, PS2. The issue is specifically 240p. 6th gen consoles all ran at least 480i. Those seem to work extremely well. Which is actually disappointing for me as my tv does support 480i consoles through the analog plug in. But it's very visible on ps1 and N64 which ran at 240p. I have yet to try S video or a switcher box to see if this is fixed. Or update the firmware.

Vhs tapes more free whiching in your house now days plus blue ray disc movies and DVDs people don't do good enough job of seeing that they are more free whiching in your house now days

[@queenegreene3926]

Based on my experience and various other instructional videos, NO formatting is required.

[@theworldofwebby]

The user manual and other videos I watched strongly encourage formatting the memory card. It definitely doesn't hurt to always format a memory card based on the operating system you will be using.

[@80sandretrogubbins25]

Formatting of USB sticks is definitely required but it is a simple process, however bear in mind it will lose data that's already on the stick.
