A couple of questions: Why are you capturing the VHS footage at 16:9 and at 60 FPS? Seems like it’s just a waste of space?
I also looked at the cost of the hardware, the Magewell Capture Card and the RetroTink in particular seem exorbitantly expensive for the advertised features? I don’t see much of an advantage of going this route vs using a mid-tier 100$ USB capture card and doing a pass with a software-based upscaler afterwards?
Not hating or anything, I’d genuinely like to see your perspective.
