    • By avatarGuest Apr 03, 2009

    • I installed and I have to keep installing the driver each time it is pluged in. I also have not been able to get it to work at all. It locks up. I even tried on another computer. I tried to find updated drivers online, but can't find one.

    • I've just bought Easycap on ebay. The drivers installed just fine, the Ulead Video Studio program is working, the output from the camcorder is good and all connections are correct. But in the capture window I get just horizontal lines. I know its the device and not the software because I get the same screen on another video capture program that I have: Debut Capture. Does anyone know if this can be fixed?

    • By avatarGuest Apr 02, 2009

    • Hi y'all

      Just bought the Easycap. After some initial setup problems I followed Matts advice and got a picture but no sound.

      Can anyone help?

      Is my format okay at AVI? There are various options MPEG, DV, VCD,

      SVCD, DVD, WMV.

      I am transferring from a VHS recorder to PC for eventual copying to disc.

      Your assistance in getting audio would be appreciated.

      Regards

      Scottie

    • By avatarlanniel May 23, 2008

    • I have everything installed properly on a Windows XP Professional system with SP2. When I plan a VCR tape through the Adaptor I can't see the video. At times I can barely see the video as if it was in the dark with faint images showing up. I installed it on a Vista system with the same results. I've tried other versions of ULEAD DVD Creating software and none can display the video from the adaptor.

    • By avatarPete_O Nov 11, 2007

    • I also have had no luck with getting a signal. I know for a fact that the camera's good, 'cause I can use my Firewire convertor and hook it up to my Mac with a beautiful picture. But with the EasyCap adapter connected to my Toshiba, I get no picture.

      Something else is odd; in the Properties section for the Syntec STK1150, I see that the video parameters reset themselves to PAL and TV Tuner. When I go to reset them, sometimes I get an "Apply" button, and sometimes not. Either way, when I go back to properties again later on it's back to PAL/TV Tuner.

      Other people seem to have great luck with this gadget - what am I doing wrong?

Hi
I had the same problem. No picture and no sound.
Here is what I did to solve it.

1. I Un-installed the software and restarted the computer.
2. Placed the installation CD (that came with the product) back in the CD drive.
3. Click on "Install Driver" (this only installs the USB 2 drivers so that the computer can see the device)

Make sure you do not attach the Easycap Device before you have installed the USB Driver (as above).

4. Once USB Driver has been installed then plug in the Easycap USB Device, windows should then detect the new device, to make sure:-
5. Right Click "My Computer" "Properties" "Hardware" "Device Manager" check "Imaging Device" (which is where my STK1150 Driver was installed) and make sure it has no yellow exclamation mark next to it.

6. Go back to CD and "install the Uplead Software", you then have to Restart the computer.

Once all installed you can then connect your external device VHS Player/Camcorder etc to the Easycap device, using the Red/Yellow/White leads.

I like many before me, tried and I tried to get the image to play on the software "Capture" screen but all to no avail, I was pulling my hair out, I wasted two days on it, I finally decided that this product was a total load of rubbish and I had wasted my money and it had to go.

Then a major break through, some smarty pants made the comment about INPUTS & OUTPUTS, my prayers along with many others could have been answered ??....

I had actually plugged the Red/Yellow/White leads into the INPUT terminals of the external VHS Player, when they should be plugged into the OUTPUT terminals of the external VHS Player/Camcorder.

On a Camcorder the RED/Yellow/White terminals are usually Output terminals but on a VHS Player they are usually always Input only !!....

I tried running my Camcorder through the software and Hey Presto that worked a treat.

So in order to get my VHS to play through the software I ended up having to buy a Scart OUT (very important "OUT") Red/Yellow/White adapter (see link for product image)

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?criteria=scart%20out&source=15&SD=Y

Once all connected I pressed play on the VHS Player and I have to say that nearly fell off my chair "IT WORKED - IT WORKED - IT WORKED"


It takes a little messing around with the settings to get everything to work. When it does, the results are very good.

First off, make sure you use the version of the ULead software that came supplied. Later versions are not compatible with analogue stream capture, only digital.

Start the software, select the 'Capture' tab at the top and then select 'Capture Video' (mid-screen).

Now select 'File' > 'Preferences' > 'Capture'. Make sure there is a tick in the box 'Allow access to capture device's settings'. OK when you're done.

Now click the 'Options' mid-screen icon (looks like a cog) and select 'Input Source'. Make sure Input Source is set to either 'Video Composite' or 'Video S-video', not to any setting relating to a TV tuner. Next set 'TV System' to PAL or NTSC depending on you source material. (If you're not sure, US is NTSC, UK/Europe is PAL).

Below that, in the audio section, make sure 'Active Device' is set to 'USB Audio Interface'. OK when you're done.

Click on the 'Options' icon again, and this time select 'Capture Properties'. Select 'Video Capture Filter' from the drop-down list and click 'Properties'.

On the 'Video Decode' tab, select the correct video standard from the drop-down list (yes, PAL, NTSC and SECAM all have multiple standards!) If you're not sure, check here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTSC

and here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAL

(Lists are at the bottom of the pages)

Next select the 'Image' tab and make sure you have the correct video standard and input source set here as well. OK your way back out to the main program screen.

With a bit of luck, everything should be working for you now! You shouldn't have to go through these setting everytime you use the program - They should be remembered.

Hope this helps!

    • Thanks matt, your settings worked perfectly for video problems, but I still dont get audio

Can you help an OAP/to use Easy Caputer?
I just can't record from my vcr to my computer. Can someone give me the intructions on how to do this please?

Hi , I use easycap with software from CyberLink PowerDirector ( the best tool in all the software tests ) and it works pretty good and mutch better the software it came with. And you can record in the DVD highspeed mode . Hope you fixs allot . If you have problems to capture audio in - dont forget to configure the audiosettings into - usb audio - in the capture settings .

There are new drivers for this device and solutions HERE

I finally found a way to listen while playing

I had problem of only hearing after I record, just go to control panel, and look for the recording tab, then properties on your sound input, then search for, play it through,, and choose your speakers, sorry for not giving exact details due to difference in our OS's

hope this helps

I had problems with the EasyCap DC60+ USB video capture card recording only in B/W until I went to changed to NTSC_M as follows (in the ULead software that came with it):

Capture Properties
Video Capture Filter
Properties
Video Standard
and set it to NTSC_M

Also I had to set the MS-Windows Sound Driver to "Use only default devices" as follows:

Control Panel
Sounds and Audio Devices Properties
Audio
Select "Use only default devices"

SCART connectors are common on European equipment. If you had a SCART socket on your VCR you would be able to figure out where the big plug goes :-)

What types of output have you got on your VCR (other than UHF)?

I would guess if you have 3 RCA connectors (but no audio out) you have some sort of 'component' output - probably YPbPr, possibly RGB.

If this is the case, it's bad news I'm afraid. The EasyCap requires a 'composite' video signal. (The difference is with component the signal is split into its component parts and carried on separate leads, with composite it is all sent down the same lead.)

ma sound no working but there is images i tried the ulead 10.0 and amcap still no work

  • By Author imageGuest Nov 07, 2008

use ulead 10 se and xp with it then it will work right

  • By Author imageGuest Apr 13, 2008

I think you need to go to options > capture property settings > imput sorce = Video Composit for using the yello cable or S-video to use the black one with all the pinholes. If you use S-Video and its black and white. It could be a bad connection or the cable is faulty. Just happend in my case.

use a program called amcap if u want easycap device to work

  • By Author imageGuest Nov 25, 2007

Just get Cyberlink Power director 10, to solve your sound issue's. ulead 10 se is not up to the job, it takes alot of fiddling with the settings.

It might depend on your VCR. Took me a little bit but i was able to get it to work.
I am using a Philips VCR. I connected 1 R/W/Y Composite Cable to Input 1 on the back of the VCR, to the R/W/Y/ Composite Cable.
Then (Obviously make sure the VCR is turn on AND Make sure TV/VCR is on so it Shows the VCR.
Then Turn it to (depending on what Line/Input you plugged the Cable into, but for me) Line/Input 1.
MAKE SURE IT IS on the same channel that the cable is plugged into or the video WILL NOT Show up on the computer. I Hope this can help.
IM me on AIM at JediMastr80 if this didn't help. Maybe i can help u if u are still having problems.

Check connections as this is the most likely issue. Have you had successs before or is this a very new issue?
