Question 1

Does this work with windows 10?

Accepted Answer

As far as I know it doesn't.  I bought this somewhere else and was even sent a replacement directly from the company itself because the one I had was not working on my Windows 10 computer.  Replacement also had the same issue.  You will hear the audio but will not see any video.  I initially thought it might be a computer issue since it worked on my Windows 7 computer.  I recently got another Windows 10 computer  and when I tried this device on the new computer I was facing the same issue I was facing with my older Windows 10 computer.  So it can be confirmed it does not work in Windows 10.

Question 2

Will this work in Linux / ubuntu 14.04

Accepted Answer

B. Pinker's info worked for me to view video (after some trial and error with numbers in device names) but I was unable to record successfully from VLC. I tried Convert option under Capture Device and also the toolbar record button. My computer may be too slow. I had success with ffmpeg on command line:ffmpeg -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -f alsa -i hw:2:0 -target ntsc-dvd ouptutfile.mpg

Question 3

Can you transfer from VHS to a computer file, such as MP4?

Accepted Answer

I use Windows 10 and using the EZGrabber, which is included on the CD with this package, it saves to the computer as AVI automatically. I don't remember seeing a choice for MP4.

Question 4

When I try to load Ezgrabber, I get a message that says, RoxioCinePlayer can not be found, try again using a valid copy of rhe RoxioCinePlayer installation package, "CPDP ". My question is, where can I find a valid copy of the Roxio
CinePlayer installation package, "CPDP"? I am using Windows 7 64 bit.
Any advice will b…

Accepted Answer

It's been a few months since I did the installation, but your problem rings a bell. I'm on a Windows 7 system (and yes, the tool is called EZGrabber on mine as well). I ran into some problems that seemed to stem from the installation software expecting to go onto a system running XP. My solution: instead of using the product installation software, I just went into each individual folder on the CD and clicked on the .exe files. Although it took a few extra clicks, everything installed without a problem, and it all seems to be playing nicely. I hope that helps.
