Hello friends!!!

I have an issue with my PowerDirector 12 when i try to capture.
I don't know the issue but i hope to have a help here.
I have a VHS. I use the scart to VGA to usb that was in the box.
Now the issue is. When i connect my VHS instantly to the PC with SCART and VGA, when i click the button capture it stucks at 70%.
I have the audio but no image and the program close when i click anything else.
But when i connect my VHS to the TV and then from the TV to my PC it works fine. But my new monitor not support scart so i have to find a solution.
https://prnt.sc/qpsb6v

P.S: When i use other programs the image works

I have never heard of a scarts to vga adapter. Maybe a scarts to composite video adapter exists. Let a user in the UK that is more familiar with the older tv answer this one.

Nope. I did all over again. Unistall and install again with proper steps but still stucks on 70%.
I have the sound but no picture when it stucks.

We do not have any information as to what brand/model number of whatever device that you are using. One user in the past never installed the factory driver on his pc, thinking that PD12 should work. See this tutorial made in the UK. It is a scarts to compositite. If yours is a scarts to vga then contact the manufacturer for assistance. Link: https://youtu.be/ACJ_P_ZapwA .

Everything was in the Cyberlink box. Adaptors, scart cables etc. Silvercrest write's on the box. Bought it from LIDL.

Thank you for giving more details on what you have. The Silvercrest usb video grabber works well with the oem version of PD12. You cannot proceed without the driver correctly installed from the supplied CD with this device. It is a scarts to composite video adapter as described here: https://youtu.be/ii_0Qhon6Ys and here: https://youtu.be/A6h7JnJfroE . Y

You may need a different driver for the Windows os that you have installed. You can get those with an internet search.
