yes this unit does wonders when you capture digital video from your dvd player but dont think you can capture analog from your vcr or any other source or analog video tape, maybe if the videos are close to new you might, just migh if your lucky,again dont buy it if your planing on conecting your vcr,youneed to have a TBC unit in the middle, if not your in deep ****and TBC units are 180 to 300 us dollars! wich some body elsehad mention this before
