I want to copy some videos from VCR and DVD to my computer for editing
(simple stuff, like removing commercials). I found this device on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Converter-Capture-Support-Android/dp/B06X42H9VZ/ref=sr_1_3?m=A3ENZ260X3A00C&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER&qid=1576302348&s=merchant-items&sr=1-3&th=1
It says in the title that it works on Linux, and at least one of the
reviews says it works on Debian.
There seem to be a lot of sellers with what looks like this exact same
device.
Does anyone know anything about this device, or other, similar devices.
Is it likely to require specialized drivers, or would generic drivers be
able to access it?
Any suggestions on editing software would also be appreciated. I have
done simple audio editing before, but not video. Would the editing
software read the data directly from the USB port, or would I need to
access the port with other software/commands. I don't mind using the
command line to access the port and save the file, if necessary.
