INSTALLATION WINDOWS 7
For Windows 7, use the supplied CD-ROM with Honestech AVR. If you no longer have a CD player, you can download the program here. Please note, it is a ZIP file, you must first “unzip” the files before use. If you are not familiar with unzipping, you can find an explanation via this link from Microsoft.
Double click on new drive for UVG-002
INSTALLATION WINDOWS 10 AND 11
- Windows 10 and 11 automatically recognize the video grabber. You don’t need to install anything for this. The supplied CD-ROM is only for Windows 7. You do need software. If you do not have video software yourself, we recommend OBS studio (free).
- You can download it at https://obsproject.com/Install OBS studio and then restart the computer.
- When the computer has restarted, open the OBS app on your computer. If you are not familiar with such software, we have a short description here.
- You can also ask your questions at www.obsproject.com on their forum or via a Discord chat. There are also many videos on YouTube for using OBS studio.
SHORT DESCRIPTION OBS STUDIO
Press + at sources
Choose Video Capture device.
Set your connected device to PLAY and you can start digitizing (record button). Everything can be adjusted in OBS according to your wishes in terms of settings. Our advice is to first record a small piece to check your image and sound during the recordings. If OBS sees the grabber as OEM or AV 2.0 USB but you do not see an image, then check your computer whether you have the correct settings in Windows for permission for the use of camera.
