About:
Elgato Video Capture is a software utility designed to work with the Elgato Video Capture hardware device. It enables users to digitize analogue video sources such as VHS tapes, camcorder tapes, and game consoles into digital files. The software provides a streamlined interface for capturing, trimming, and exporting video in standard Mac formats.
Key Features:
  • Analogue-to-digital conversion for VHS and other tape formats
  • Real-time video preview and capture monitoring
  • Simple trimming tools to remove unwanted footage
  • Export to common macOS-compatible video formats
Use Cases:
  • Preserving old family VHS tapes and home movies
  • Digitizing retro gaming footage from consoles via composite/S-Video
  • Converting analogue camcorder tapes to modern digital formats
Alternatives:
  • Blackmagic Media Express – Professional suite for Blackmagic capture cards, more complex workflow
  • QuickTime Player (Legacy) – Basic recording features but lacks dedicated analogue capture support
