Does it work with Hi8 cassettes?
Hello,
Yes, it works with any analogue source as long as you can connect it. I bought it to digitize Hi8 tapes! The software supplied with it is not too bad, it captures in MPG but if you want to digitise directly in MKV or MP4 (for example) I strongly advise you to have a look at OBS (obsproject.com). It's free, open-source and works great!
So for my part, the device was natively recognized by Windows. Win10 on a Core-i7, SSD disks, GeForce GTX1060 (for hardware encoding with OBS) = nickel digitization of Hi8 tapes played on my old Sony camera via the S-Video output)
The only remark, despite the presence of left-right cinch connectors, it seems that the sound capture is only in mono. But it's not a big deal...
