It’s been a while since I’ve digitized VHS tapes. It took me a while fiddling with settings on the camera to remember how to pass through the signal from the VCR. I went to Goodwill and grabbed the bottom VCR. My Mac will see signal from the dvd player, but on the VCR side it just gets a Samsung screensaver. The model is Samsung DVD-V9650. I grabbed it because I read on here that sometimes these combo units are better and it has S-Video Out. I don’t have a remote. Does it seem like this unit is a dud? The timer counts as if it’s playing the tape, but I can’t get it off the screensaver when set to VCR
I’m currently using the bottom VCR that I already had laying around, but it only has the RCA out and I know that’s an inferior option. Does anyone have any advice on trying to get the combo unit working or should I just run with what I have working with the Sanyo?
