ClearClick VHS To DVD Wizard with USB Video Grabber & Free USA Tech Support

Im always leery of products like this when I read such disparate reviews. But I bought it anyway. I have some old movies on VHS that I want to bring over to MP4 and DVD. The install was very easy. FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS!! 0. DONT INSTALL THE USB YET!! 1. Install the driver. DONT REBOOT YET 2. Install the software. REBOOT WHEN DONE. DONT RUN IT YET! 3. Plug in the USB (I had it in a USB 3.0 port) 4. Run the software as administrator (or it wont work right I found out) 5. Do the configuration as shown in the booklet I plugged my VCR into the video/audio connections and fired it up. It worked great! The quality of the video is good considering the VHS I was copying isnt the newest. Audio was great. I have quite a number of VHS tapes Im going to move to electronic format. This seems to be the thing to do the trick. Id certainly recommend it. Hooked up

This device would not work properly. The sound would not synchronize with the picture. I contacted customer service several times and they tried to fix it. They sent me a different device. That 1 did not work either. They sent me an email with a return label. That email stated please return the product and we will start your refund once its in the mail. The package was delivered a few days ago and they will not answer my emails. Fortunately Amazon took care of the problem as usual.

Posting after running one test. This is the easiest converting software Ive ever used, its an all-in-one package, once you get past the initial issues. Purchased from Amazon, loaded on a windows 10 PC with 4GB RAM and 2.20GHz duo core. Followed the enclosed instructions to the letter, but program would not detect signal from video player. Uninstalled, reinstalled, still nothing. Based on other reviews I thought that was that. I sent an email to tech support about 4:30 pm CST on a Thursday, figured Id hear back early the next week. Nope, got a reply Friday morning by 7:30am. List of instructions to load a different driver. Not complicated, you do not need to be a computer wiz to follow, but you do need to be able to read. I followed the instructions and was up and running in about 15 minutes. So far I have only recorded a test DVD, only about 15 minutes in length. All seems to be OK. Have to remember Im recording tapes that are (in some cases) 20+ years old and watching on new large screen TVs, so the quality isnt what you would hope for, but Im putting that on my old tapes and not on the software. If warranted Ill edit this review after burning a couple full length videos to DVD, but if all acts as it did for the test my 5 stars will stand. ***edit/update*** After burning 5 videos to DVD I have to lower my rating somewhat. When this works it works well, but in 2 of the 5 videos the audio sync was off from the video, in one case by over 5 seconds. I had to capture the video a 2nd time, and its much closer now. Also, after capture I got an error message about running out of data (the multiplexer has run out of input data) on a 3rd project. So far have not found a way around this and will have to engage tech support. In 2 of the 5 projects it worked exactly as expected, but thats less than a 50% hit rate. So far all of my projects have been an hour in duration or less. Not sure if there would be more issues with longer tapes.

Easy to use! Works great!

My dad passed away Dec 6 , 2020 and he always used a camcorder and has so many videos he did and I got to hear his voice along with my moms for she passed Aug, 2010 it is the best thing ever made just to have them with me and my grandchildren to see there great grandparents and the things the family has done.

Let me begin by saying I am not technologically competent, which is why I purchased this particular program to convert my old VHS family tapes to DVD. I did not want to do a lot of fancy editing. I just wanted to preserve my old VHS tapes. There is a little paper booklet of instructions, and they are okay, but also leaves out some key details. There is also a more complete set of directions that download to your computer. Please use these directions. I was using Windows 10 so I know it works with this, even though some may say it does not. I understand because I almost returned the program several times. But, all the problems were the result of my not reading the directions carefully. Example, take off the power save option on your computer. My setting was for my computer to go to sleep after 15 minutes, and that kept screwing up my efforts before I figured that out. But, the crowning jewel in all of this is the tech department, specifically Tyler. I emailed him many times, and he patiently and quickly answered all my questions. He should get a raise! The end result is that I have converted all my old family tapes to DVD, and also copied them to flash drives which is really convenient.

Reviewed a number of similar items with all having both very positive or very negative reviews. I choose this unit as the reviews said tech support was very good. I had issues getting started that were related to settings on my PC. I sent an email with the error messages to the email listed in the package and got an answer in 15 minutes with very clear directions. Once I followed the directions and was recording, I asked another question about which format was best to use to best quality of picture. I was answered within 5 minutes. Support is awesome and product works!

I had 40+ years of 8mm film converted to VHS years ago. No sound. Time to convert the VHS to DVD before it degrades too much. Instructions were easy to follow and the DVD I created plays perfectly with resolution equal to the quality of the VHS. All to be expected. Someone indicated in their review they were unhappy they could not expand the work screen to full screen. True, but it doesnt bother me at all. This was half the price of a product I purchased that didnt work. I cant speak to how well it edits or records with sound but for my purposes, I am 100% happy with this product. I use Windows 10.

This is a very good device, it does just what I need it to do. I had no issues with it at all, it works perfectly on my Win 10 laptop. The sound out of sync situation is only happening during the capturing process. Once the video is captured and saved on your computer, the sync issue is not there. Ive converted 10 tapes, burned them all to DVDs and planning to do more. In addition, I saved them all to my external usb storage as a backup. The clarity and crispness isnt exactly the same as the original tapes, but thats understandable. To get the same level of crispness you would need to go to a professional movie-making studio. Im quite happy with the results, it does the job.

Great product for transferring old vhs tapes to dvd! Being able to keep a backup copy of the file and dvd is always peace of mind knowing tapes don’t last forever. The original software sent didn’t work with my old dell laptop. Tyler the support department lead is Awesome!!!! He sent me another option that worked for my computer. Very happy with product and support.
