TVR330 workhorse works
I purchased this TVR330 to transfer old video Hi8 and Digital 8 tapes to my computer because my TVR480 was being finicky and I was getting inconsistent results including my computer would only occasionally recognize the TVR480. So after considering having someone transfer them for me I decided to buy this TVR330. It has worked well and my computer recognizes it every time. So far I have transferred 23 tapes and still going.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
