USB 2.0 S-Video Composite Capture Card

The HDSUNWSTD capture card converts analogue S-Video and composite sources into digital files over a USB 2.0 connection. It accepts NTSC, PAL and SECAM signals and works with Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista and XP without requiring driver installation. The package includes the capture device, a CD and a manual.

Ideal for digitising VHS tapes.

This device suits anyone who wants a straightforward way to transfer legacy video tapes to a modern PC for editing or archiving. It is not suited for users who need to capture HDMI, component or other digital video inputs, or for those who require multi-channel audio capture beyond the standard stereo pair.

Software-dependent output up to 1080p

The maximum recorded resolution depends on the capture software used, with support for up to 1080p in applications such as PotPlayer or AMCap. The USB 2.0 bandwidth limits sustained throughput, so very high-bitrate captures may drop frames. It comfortably handles standard-definition sources but runs out of headroom for uncompressed high-definition streams.

Questions about this item

What type of video source can I connect to the S-Video or Composite inputs of this capture card?

You can connect any analogue source that outputs NTSC, PAL or SECAM signals — such as a VHS deck, Hi8 camcorder or Mini DV camcorder — directly to the card's S-Video or Composite sockets.

Will the USB 2.0 connection on this card work with the USB 3.0 ports on my current PC?

Yes, the card's USB 2.0 plug is fully backward-compatible with USB 3.0 and later ports, so it will function normally on modern computers.

How can I verify the card is capturing video at up to 1080p after I install it?

Open the supplied PotPlayer or AMCap software, start a preview or recording, and check the resolution reported in the program's video settings — it will show up to 1080p when the source and software support it.
