I'm trying to get rid of all my old videotapes using a USB grabber (Fushicai USBTV007 Video Grabber [EasyCAP]). When I use VLC or Open Broadcaster Software I can get the video stream from /dev/video2.
With an old Hi8 camera (Hitachi VM-H630E) it works fine, but with my VHS player (Thomson VTH6210) it just gives a black screen and no sound. I know the player is fine because on a television it just works.
I've tried to change all settings I could find (using the monkey testing industry standard), but it makes no difference at all.
How can I get this working?
