Convert VHS to a Mp4 Using OBS Studio | Mac & Windows 2023-2024 Tutorial

Thanks for easy tutorial, I will try this later on.😊

This was extremely helpful. I was able to get the video working but now have a new issue. I am recording from VHS to my laptop. The audio is coming through with a cracking broken sound. I have gaps and static. Do you have any idea what this could be. It isn't in the original recording. I have a different version of OBS than you because I don't have all the settings you have. I am on a MAC silicone. OBS 30.0.2

Good luck with your video vhs tapes more greater

Vhs movies more free whiching in your y get rid of them people are buying them offline now days for 10 dollars

This way you will end up with 25/30 fps instead of 30/60 fps which VHS has, not to mention interlace artifacts during horizontal camera movements.

First of all, you only mention VHS. Beta tapes are very popular here, much more than VHS. I suppose your procedure is good for both formats and also perhaps for Laserdisc. Although you explanation is excellent, it is a very confusing and difficult procedure for common "Joe Average" chaps. I ask, Is this the easiest way of configuring Betamax (or other analog players) for digitizing analog recordings? Perhaps it would be easier if the software included with the video grabber is used instead of OBS? Thank you

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I just have one question: the file size is extremely large, I'm getting a 15GB 30 minute video file. How can I reduce that? I tried reducing the bitrate from 60000 to 2500 and all it did was lower the quality of the video, the size stayed the same. Thanks a lot in advance for any tips!

I have about 30 VHS-C tapes I am trying to convert on my Mac, do I need to run through the OBS settings for each tape? or once the settings are selected, will they stay that way?

Can you edit/cut the video before saving it so there isn’t like 10 seconds of blank after the video?
