I went to the device manager and uninstalled the vid box which prompted me to restart the computer. I even checked the vcr on my tv to make sure it was working normally. As I said everything was connected properly and my ports are working fine. I checked the guide and followed the troubleshooting steps. The device was detected, but when I played the video nothing showed on the screen not even the normal black square. I then tried it with the Honestech software. The last time I used it (2 or 3 months ago) it worked fine. I even changed the usb ports and this made no difference. I had a capture device (The Honestech vid box which had been working fine to this point) and everything was plugged in correctly. I followed the troubleshooting steps provided. If you have a USB video capture device, please check it is plugged in now and press Try again.

You must have a video input device to connect your vcr to your computer. Today I was going to use it and then for some reason I couldn't. Then I used Golden Videos VHS to DVD video capture software with the hardware and this improved the video quality. It was working fine if not with choppy video for months. I own a Honestech VHS to DVD 5.0 Deluxe video capture system.
