I have installed the Honestech TVR 2.5 video editing software onto my Windows 10 laptop and am using the Video DVR usb cable that came with it. I want to put my VHS tapes onto DVD, but have no clue how to do it. I received no manual and can't find anything for this particular one online. I can get audio and a black screen with crackly lines for the video when I set it on Composite. I don't know what the settings need to be, so have guessed at PAL-I for the Video Standard, OEM for the Video Capture Device, and MPEG-2 for the Record Setting Profile. I haven't touched anything else. I'm in the UK. Please could someone tell me what I need to do to get this thing working!
I figured this out by a simple computer glitch. This software doesn't like windows 8. So all you have to do is change the compatability settings to windows 7. So in windows 8 I'm not sure how you do this but even with my windows 8 on my computer I still use old desktop settings format. If you can switch over to old desktop like windows 7 what I did was on the honestech tvr 2.4 icon on your desktop using old desktop format layout like windows 7 was I right clicked on the icon and click troubleshoot compatibility settings. When prompted it will ask you what problems occured. Check off the last box which says your problem is not listed. The next box that prompts on your screen says did this software work with windows 8, 7, etc... click on windows 7. Save your settings, restart your computer. If and when this resolves your first problem and you get it to work then I can help you with the settings if needed. If this doesn't work you may have some wires that they color coded wrong. Play bookworm free online without downloading. Like sometimes your video is red instead of yellow or even white.
