Elgato Video Capture brings video to your computer from analog video sources such as VCRs, set-top boxes, camcorders, DVD players, and more.

Analog becomes digital
Elgato Video Capture converts your analog videos directly into H.264 format – so the video material is immediately available in iTunes or your Windows Media Player library. There is no time-consuming re-encoding and your videos can be played immediately on the computer, synchronized with iPad and iPhone, edited in iMovie or Windows Live Movie Maker or uploaded to YouTube.

Easy to handle
Elgato Video Capture Software for Mac and Windows PCs takes you step-by-step through the process of digitizing your video – from connecting the analog video device to choosing where you want to view or use the video later. Select the 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio to match the original video and trim the beginning and end of the recording.
