VHS to DVD via Computer

[wikkie2204]

Ok, here's the deal. I recently purchased the MSI VOX USB 2.0 TV Tuner box. It comes with software that I can't find a serial key for but that's not the issue. I finally got it set up, and I started to copy my HS graduation which was on VHS. I have it set to Mpeg 4 and its going to burn to a DVD when I feel like it so the space isn't an issue. On playback in Windows Media Player however, its a really small screen. I don't see anywhere to increase the screen size and I"m afraid its going to come out grainy if I leave it as small as it is. I'm using honestech VHS to DVD software, any other recommendations are valued. Does anyone know how to correct this?

Try using Pinnacle or Ulead Video Studio for capturing in. Also, maybe your card only supports small resolution.

according to the specs it will capture at up to full D1 (720x480) resolution. For vhs tape I usually capture at 1/2 D1 (352x480) as vhs is 1/4 D1 (352x240). You won't get better quality by upsizing the source resolution, you can't put iformation in that isn't there.
