VHS to DVD
VHS to DVD (also marketed as "Easy VHS to DVD" by Roxio/Corel) is a video capture and authoring utility that converts analog VHS tape content into digital video files and DVD-compatible formats. It includes a hardware video capture interface (typically connected via USB) that digitizes video from VHS decks, camcorders and other analog sources, then lets users edit the captured footage, create chapter markers, add menus and burn the result to DVD media or export as MP4 files. The app targets home users with old VHS libraries who want to preserve and archive their tapes in digital form without sending them to a professional service.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionVHS to DVD is an Intel-only app from Corel/Roxio that does not run natively on Apple Silicon Macs and appears not to have received a native build. Forum discussions from 2023 confirm that users upgrading from Intel Macs to M1/M2 Macs found the app broken and no native replacement from Roxio was available. Since Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), this app will stop launching entirely on that release. For VHS digitization on Apple Silicon, the most practical alternatives are to use a dedicated USB video capture device (such as Elgato's capture kits, which work with any Mac via standard video input drivers) and pair it with general-purpose video editing software like DaVinci Resolve (free native build) or Final Cut Pro. If you already have hardware in place that came with VHS to DVD, contact Roxio/Corel directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned; if not, consider whether the hardware vendor's own macOS driver and a generic video editor would serve your needs instead.
