Another similar usb video converter, "Cleantt" on Amazon, mentioned as Linux compatible https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Converter-Capture-Support-Android/dp/B07QFVNSYJ/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=free+drive+usb+video+capture+card+with+support+for+linux&qid=1632603850&sr=8-5#immersive-view_1632603916288 And in another, more recent article Jancane A/D video usb adapter is rated as the best among 10 (linux not mentioned) https://geekydeck.com/best-usb-analog-video-capture/ https://www.audiointerfaces.net/jancane-usb-2-0-audio-video-converter-video-capture-card-digitizes-video-from-any-analog-source-including-vcr-vhs-dvd/ But I haven't yet seen any a/d usb 2.0 adapter that documents something "better quality" record format than mpegs (possibly DV25) compression. What I really want is some kind of 4:2:2 sampling rate documented, like i.e DV50 or other. Neither USB 3.0 adapters is found, which possibly is neccessary for 4:2:2 FLAC lossless compression? Comments and other options or suggestions are welcome to clarify the latter :; Terje søn. 26. sep. 2021, 00:32 skrev <[email protected]>: > Yep, something like that, I think the make I used was Easycap. > > MatN > > On Sat, 25 Sep 2021 23:26:27 +0200 > "Terje J.
