Easy Vhs To Dvd For Mac - Bought In The Us To Be Used In Europe - Pal Issue With Whs ?

[Henrik Weis Aalbæk]

Hi

 

I have bought and installed the Roxio version 2.0.1. - bought in the US. I can capture when connecting to my old Sony Handycam Vision via composite video connector.

 

When I connect to a VHS recorder I get a green screen and no signal in (I expect). I connect via composite video connector to the Scart.

 

Do I have a PAL / NTSC issue and in case yes - what can i do about it? or is there anything else wrong.

 

Best regards

 

Henrik

Please clarify... Are you connecting the Output of the VHS recorder (via Scart to composite connection) to the Roxio unit.?

Yes Digital Guru :-)

I get a green screen on my MAC - seems that I do not get a signal through - when I move the composite connection (the 2 cables yellow and black) to my old Sony Handycam Vision (I know it's an old one - thats the reason why I need to move the content of the tapes) everything work.

 

Would it be an idea if I tried with another VHS machine - I only have one but maybe I can borrow one in the neighborhood ?

Some Scart connectors only work in one direction. In this example http://www.amazon.co.uk/RCA-SCART-Adapter-Composite-PlayStation/dp/B0035XB4Z4 it ONLY works as a input, no signal would come out of it. This one http://www.amazon.com/Scart-Composite-S-Video-Audio-Adapter/dp/B006RBMJ46 has a switch which will allow both in or out . This might be your problem, but without knowing your exact configuration, and what type of scart you have, it is hard to call. You know the Roxio is ok as it works when you use the Handycam.

Hi Digital Guru - thanks of the advice - I believe I have one of those Scart with the option you mention - will search and reply back if it worked - again - thanks from Denmark

Let us know how you make out

Hi Digital Guru - gav up searching - bought an input/output converter online - will be silence for a couple of days until I receive it - will be back with how I progress.

Hope that does the trick for you, keep your fingers crossed

Hi Digital Guru - you were absolutely right - a new scart with output and it works - I am struggling with the quality - I will try with another VHS machine - and and and it show as black and white... ? - but I'm moving ahead...

Thanks

Henrik
