i do not have videos but i do have audio cassets which needs conversion to digital.

I do not have any good advice, only pain.

It turns out that a lot of old tape players have either failed completely or else add excessive background hissing.

Most tapes don't record all the way to the end so you will have to cut it digitally regardless.

How I digitized my family VHS tapes:

* I borrowed a good quality VHS player with SCART connector because it sends RGB in separate channels, improving quality considerably. Don't use the single channel composite video.

* Then I bought a cheap SCART to HDMI convertor and used a borrowed HDMI capture card.

* I recorded it with OBS studio and the resulting video looks very good.

So my total costs were about 20$ (for the adapter).
