A: No, the Video 2 PC has everything you need to get started converting your tapes right out of the box! :)

Q: Could this unit be used to connect a PC to an older model TV that only has composite A/V jacks? The goal is to use the older TV as a monitor to display what is on the newer PC.

A: undefined

Decent Unit to Get Audio into Your PC
As laptops get smaller, the amount of interface ports to plug-things-in are disappearing. This box is perfect for people like me who want to record our old vinyl or other audio into a laptop that has no audio input. It takes your analog audio and lets you plug into USB. It works great! HOWEVER... It doesn't seem to work in all USB ports. I discovered that it must be connected to the Enhanced Host Controller USB port, or it doesn't work. I luckily found this port the first time I tested it. Sadly, when I really needed it to work, I used a different port, and it didn't work. It almost got repacked and returned until I did a little reading. I'm actually ok with this and still give it 4 stars. Also, I think the price is rather high for this box. I'd still recommend it because it does exactly what I need it to do. Despite that quirk, it does it well.

Memories are safe
I had an earlier version that came with a VCR but the VCR gave out. This was a replacement that I needed my own VCR for. Good working VCRs are getting very hard to come by so I am glad I got this now. The copy process is VERY easy but the editing took some time to learn and get use to. It is in real time so a 6 hour video takes 6 hours. Some glitches include on family videos it will sometimes stop recording thinking it is a copy protected video and I'm not sure why. I start over and it works? If you still have videos to save this is a good but time consuming way to go.

does the job. Software cumbersome
This does convert video into digital format. It's not quite lossless, but certainly acceptable quality. The provided software is needlessly frustrating, especially when it comes to converting the transfer from their proprietary format into a regular standard. But there aren't a lot of reasonably priced choices. It works.
