Cheap USB Video Capture! $11 Generic EZCap device.

I found this no-name generic EZCap style USB 2.0 video capture device on ebay for just under $11 with free shipping. In this video, I unbox this cheap capture card and test out both the S-Video and composite video inputs. I see if Macrovision Copyguard Copy Protection effects the performance of the unit, and I compare the results of this unit with the analog inputs on a DVD recorder.

I have put together a 2nd video where I put this device "through the ringer" with quite a few different audio and video test signals. It is available HERE:
