USB Audio/Video Grabber II lets you convert all your old videos and family memories to
current video formats and standards — and what’s more, once they’ve been converted to
digital format, you can easily edit and copy them with no quality loss. In fact, with simple,
inexpensive software that’s available now, you can even enhance the quality to be better
than the original!
Save the video in a state-of-the-art format, make the edits you want with the software
we’ve included, and finally store everything to your computer drive, or on DVDs or Video
CDs.

Edit & exports video to other mobile devices such as iPod®, iPhone® or Sony PSP®
Simple to Use
Notes:
Video recording can use several gigabytes an hour (the higher the quality of the
video you record, the more space it takes on the disc) so a hard drive spinning at
5400 RPM or faster and with plenty of free space is advisable for recording.

Chapter 3: Using the ENMVG-2
Connect your video source to the ENMVG-2. Let’s start by assuming that your video
source is working properly and also sending a signal to the output connectors you’re going
to use (if you're not sure, now’s the time to check!).

You’ll see a page as below. The black rectangle on the down left will display your images
once you start the video source and the capture.
First test your software is working properly by playing the video you want to record. Click
the “Settings” button.
When the Video Settings page appears, click the “Capture Settings” button. The Capture
Settings page should load.

Click the “Auto Detect Video Signal” button and wait a few seconds. Then click the
“Save” button in the upper left to save your work and return to the Video Settings page.
Once the Video Settings page has loaded, click the “Save” button to go back to the Video
screen. Then you can check your test video.
Now wind the video to where you want your recording to start. Click “Capture” to load the
Capture page.

You can enter a name for your recording into the “File Name” field.
Note:
If your video source is a DV camcorder, you’ll be asked to choose whether you
want the video stored in “DV-AVI” format or “MPEG-2” format (that’s the format
used for movie DVDs). For important footage, the DV-AVI format is usually the
better choice if you have the space. DV-AVI files are normally higher quality and
better for editing later, but they’re also bigger than MPEG-2 versions of the
same source video. Depending on your format decision, various options may
be available to you.
To interrupt the recording for any reason, just click the "Stop" button in the upper left of the
Capture page.
It’s sometimes hard to estimate the exact length of a recording you want to create, so we
recommend you enter a longer time than the video you want to capture (you’ll see an
estimate of the available recording time on your disk). Don’t worry about extra footage
because you can easily trim off the excess at the start and end using the editor.
