[00:00] I haven't done this recently, so just theoretically the VCR outputs NTSC (or PAL/SECAM) and there will be a device that digitizes that signal. Analog files will be really big when raw so eventually it needs to get compressed. Some of the devices, will do the compression before it enters the computer. This saves a lot of time and space, but then [00:00] you're limited by the settings that devices offers and what software it's compatible with. [00:01] I suppose it'd been simpler to ask what hardware connects the computer and VCR [00:09] *** tuluu has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out) [00:09] *** tuluu has joined #archiveteam-bs [00:21] *** justas4 has joined #archiveteam-bs [00:27] *** justas3 has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 745 seconds) [00:29] *** antomatic has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) [00:31] *** d5f4a3622 has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [00:31] *** d5f4a3622 has joined #archiveteam-bs [01:00] *** killsushi has joined #archiveteam-bs [01:10] *** Ryz has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [01:10] *** kiska18 has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [01:10] *** kiska18 has joined #archiveteam-bs [01:13] *** Fusl sets mode: +o kiska18 [01:13] *** Fusl____ sets mode: +o kiska18 [01:13] *** Fusl_ sets mode: +o kiska18 [01:13] markedL: Ok, I'll ask him when it gets online again [01:14] Any recommendations on a good VHS capture device btw?

I've only used hauppauge, silicon dust, and blackmagic. which are mostly different focus. [01:47] Ok, nice [01:47] Are Hauppage, Silicon Dust, and Blackmagic good as well? [01:49] i'm trying to google what the IA uses, but can't find it :/ [01:50] Blackmagic sounds familiar. Don't they develop some professional video software? [01:50] Blackmagic/Silicon Dust in the past have looked good on paper for other purposes [01:51] no idea about vid capture, tho [01:51] DaVinci Resolve [01:51] That's the one [01:51] SiliconDust only does tuner cards so live TV. BlackMagic is professional so can be better quality but more complicated, I didn't find anything less that $200. So Hauppage is the closest. They had good Linux support, which may not be important to your scenario [01:52] Ok [01:52] Any other good brands that you know of? [01:53] this used to be more niche, but then live broadcast gaming took off and there's a lot of overlap [02:08] *** MrRadar2 has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** BnAboyZ has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** h3ndr1k has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** Mc has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** a3nm has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** Dallas68 has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** RichardG has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** bsmith093 has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** ats has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** yano has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** Mateon1 has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** brayden has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** Tenebrae has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** asie has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** wp494 has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** bluefoo has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** Smiley has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** underscor has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:08] *** eythian has quit IRC (se.hub irc.efnet.nl) [02:22] I'm not staying on top of it. Dazzle was popular a long time ago. Looks like it has a MPEG2 hardware encoder. The features needed will depend on whether there needs to be editing, what OS, how fast the CPU is, and what formats it's being uploaded in, where disk or network upload might limit some choices.
