Following the success of the incredibly popular USB turntable is the latest offering that enables you to convert your old video tapes into a format into a media file that can be used on a computer. The vinyl USB device saw thousands of fans of vinyl able to rejuvenate their old record collection and take their favourite old tunes from the dark ages to the new era.



This meant that they could enjoy their vinyl in mp3 format on their portable devices. The success of this device has seen a number of similar devices pushed into development. The latest example of these developments is the ION VCR 2 to PC Video Converter which lets you convert your videos to a format that can be used on the computer. This means that you can convert your old video films onto DVD and play them on your DVD player.

This device can enable an individual to rediscover films and videos that might have been otherwise neglected. You can pull your collection out of the loft or garage and convert them into a format that can be used on your DVD player or on your computer. This could even mean that your entire film collection could be recorded onto a single hard drive.

Not only is this likely to save you a considerable amount of space but it will also mean that you can be nostalgic about the films that you used to watch. The device works on the simple premise that the VHS player is connected to a computer using a USB connection. This means that the device can play straight into the computer. The USB video deck is delivered with software that enables you to turn these videos into files that you can work with.

The software will have a system in which you can cut up the films into sections that suit you or even work to clear up sound quality and indeed enhance your films.

This software is designed so that people with limited experience using computers or editing software can still benefit and use the software effectively. This means that even for those people that don't use computers often the system is still very easy to use.

Once you have managed to get used to the method of saving records onto the computer (which won't take long to master) you will be able to watch them in digital format or store them securely on your hard drive. This means that you can finally rid yourself of your cumbersome video tape collection without ever having to worry about if you want to watch one of them again.

The device also has the capacity to allow you to connect a video recorder and convert the video footage that you have connected into the port into a digital form and with a wide range of editing software packages available this could help you become the director of your own films. The device will also make it much easier for you to transport these videos onto a portable device such as an iPod. This could mean that you can show all of your friends that special video that you created.
