USB-Live2: USB video capture and video display for your Windows PC
Watch, capture or record live video from your VCR, camcorder or industrial video camera! USB-Live2 connects to any S-Video or composite video source and brings the video into your PC over USB.
Watch and record live video from your cable or satellite box! USB-Live2 connects to the analog S-Video or composite RCA jacks on most cable and satellite TV boxes, so you can watch cable TV on your PC screen, in a window or full screen. USB-Live2 comes with both the WinTV application (which gives you scheduled recording) plus the Hauppauge Capture application for full screen TV watching. You will change the TV channel with your TV boxes remote control. The quality of the TV picture is not as good as what you would see with the HD PVR 2 model 1512, but for simple TV watching, the USB-Live2 might be the best solution.
Use USB-Live2 to convert your home video tapes into DVDs! USB-Live2 connects to any S-Video or composite video source and brings the video into your PC over USB. Plug the USB-Live2 into the USB port on your PC, plug the S-Video or composite video cables into your medical, industrial camera, VCR or analog video camera and you're ready to record analog video into your PC.
USB-Live2 creates MPEG-2 video files. You can play these MPEG-2 video files in Hauppauge Capture, WinTV, VLC or Windows Media Player. Or you can burn the MPEG-2 recordings onto DVD or CD discs.
Add video clips to your web site The Adobe Media Encoder can input video from USB-Live2 for creating content for websites in many different video formats. Creative webmasters can incorporate still frame highlights or motion video clips on their web sites!
Use USB-Live2 for desktop publishing: With our WinTV SnapShot function, you can quickly save JPEG images from your video camera.
