Update: I’ve moved EasyCAP driver file hosting to Google Drive as Google Cloud billing hit $100 AUD per month, EasyCAP driver downloads were 638 Gigibytes for the month of November! All links have been updated. ? The EasyCAP converts an RCA or S-video source into a USB video and audio capture device – known as a Sound, video and game controller device in Windows – the possibilities for connecting analog sources to a Windows machine are endless and it’s priced insanely cheap. All of this positive feedback stops when you connect it to a Windows machine – XP, 7, 8, 8.1 and now 10 – and realise there are hundreds of variations of this device produced with drivers designed specific to each variant with no original manufacturer to provide drivers or compatibility at this point most users bin it and go on with their lives I almost gave up too. Here’s the gotcha, ‘my’ EasyCAP – shown in packaging above but with labels on each cable – is sold on eBay, Amazon, etc. As the which is shared by every other variant out there but internally it is called the eMPIA Technology USB 2861 Device.
Unfortunately there is no way to tell what variant you have until you open the package and check the Device Properties for that Unknown Device showing within the Windows Device Manager and at that point you then can start looking for drivers that may be ‘compatible’ with – definitely not designed for – Windows 8, 8.1 or 10. The eMPIA Technology USB 2861 Device has the following hardware details shown within the Windows Device Manager. Screenshot from Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 EasyCAP drivers working in Windows 10 connected using the RCA output of the EasyCAP device. Manufacturer and Provider:. eMPIA Technology Hardware IDs:.

USB/VIDEB1A&PID2861&MI=00 Below is a link to the Windows 7 drivers that were compatible with my EasyCAP device and further down a list of other EasyCAP drivers you can try.
All of them require you to disable Windows Driver Signature from Advanced Startup; you can read about this from. The driver package that worked in Windows 8.1 and now Windows 10:.
(aka EMBDA64 5.7.129.0 – 1/29/2007) I suspect this hosted on the Microsoft Update Catalog is a newer driver release than the one I have working but I have not installed it so cannot confirm compatibility; in my mind, don’t fix something that ain’t broke Other driver packages and installers that might help other frustrated EasyCAP users (some are duplicates but different driver versions), good luck!.

It’s clean just wanted to give you heads up. All other download files are 4MB up to 34MB. I will host these driver packages as long as I can and mirror them if the server load is too high.
Yup we hit the $100 AUD per month billing limit for file hosting, the downloads links are now direct links to Google Drive. If you have a question as other readers may help you. Hi – I have Windows 10 and a black dongle labeled EasyCap. Windows tried to install a driver, and claimed it succeeded. But VLC Media Player could not see it in Media Open Capture Device. Device Manager showed it as a generic USB 2.0 Video Capture Device, with a yellow warning icon showing that drivers had failed to load. April 2018 windows 10 update seems to have broken it for me.
Device usbtv007 using EasyCAPUSBVID1B71&PID3002Driver.zip was working fine previously. Now ‘Driver is not intended for this platform’ and windows update defaults it to ‘OEM device’ which doesn’t work with capture programs. Full error: AddService=X86BDA,0x00000002,X86BDA.ServiceInstall (oemdrv.inf line 192) Add Service: Binary ‘C: WINDOWS system32 DRIVERS OEMDrv.sys’ for service ‘X86BDA’ is not compatible and has been reverted. Error while installing services. Error 0xe0000234: Driver is not intended for this platform.
Plug it in and see if Device Manager doesn’t show a new “OEM Capture” under Sound/Video/Game controllers. If it does, then use it with the default Microsoft driver from Windows and LEAVE IT THE HELL ALONE! Because it either works or doesn’t, searching for driers aren’t gonna make it beterr, quicker or prettier if Windows can run it with it’s own default OEM driver. WHY this guy who started this page (or anyone else) is having a challenge getting it recognized in generic Windows escapes me, unless you include USER INCOMPETENCE. Friends I’m hoping that others might assist me.
I found that I have EasyCaps with three different device IDs (Device Manager / properties on device / Details tab / choose Hardware Ids from dropdown). USB VID534D&PID0021&REV0121&MI02 works well with “EasyCapDC6064bit.zip” driver hooray! However, I cannot find appropriate drivers for these next two:.
USB VID1B71&PID3002&REV0100 (I cannot get to work with drivers here carrying that info even after I change to NTSC from PAL am I missing something??). USB VID05E1&PID0408&REV0005&MI00 (tried most all drivers, without success) Does anyone have tips for me for getting this last two type of EasyCaps to work for them?
OR if someone has a source to purchase EasyCaps of a version that they know there are drivers that will work, such as the EMPIA, can anyone point me in that direction? In case it’s useful info for anyone – I have the utv007 version – on one windows 10 machine it just works out of the box. On another (the one I actually want to work!!!) it just won’t work.
I’ve tried all sorts of combinations of uninstaling drivers in device manager, updating manually and automatically, multiple usb ports, restart with drivers uninstalled or not and with the device in or not. Of the drivers here the only ones that it will even attempt to install are the utv007 ones – but they are not for win 7 or win 10 and don’ work – I’ll post again if I find a fix. I think i have the same issue. Sound is good but picture is shaky, distorted and fluctuates between color and black and white. When plugging VCR into TV, picture is perfect.
Tested with ulead recording software and VLC, with numerous VHS tapes and numerous vhs decks all with the same result. Tried these drivers (and several others including the one that came with the hardware): EasycapDC60STK1160Grabber32&64bit USB-AVCPTSetupForWin7.zip EasyCap W7 W10 x64.zip DriversSMIGrabber26012011.zip OS is windows 7 64 bit. Hardware ID is: USB VID05E1&PID0408&REV0005&MI00 USB VID05E1&PID0408&MI00 Any ideas out there? Please and thank you.
I decided to buy a capture card to convert VHS to PC. I was aware of Easycap from TV sales channels and eventually settled on one sold on Ebay from ‘buy-bar’ for £6.29.
When it arrived the wording on the device was ‘Easiercap’. Straight away I knew this wasn’t a genuine article but used the driver disc and downloaded the software anyway. Setting up the device failed to make it work.
Video Capture Driver
I had all the connections correct and had watched countless ‘youtube’ without success. My old video player only had SCART and I eventually found a comment where someone commented that they had to but and IN/OUT Scart adapter. I found one on ebay for £1.99 and amazingly setting it to ‘out’, the device worked. I have since converted 2 videos into MP4 without any issues but the editing software on the disc couldn’t be found. That’s not a problem because there’s other editing software available. Although I’m not happy about not having a genuine article, I’m more than happy that I can now convert my video.
In my unqualified opinion, if it works to convert my precious VHS then its worth spreading the news. Hopefully you’ll find some success with my info. Best of Luck. I have the software you mentioned (Easier Cap DC60-007 usbtv007) and while it does produce both video and audio without problems, there is still an issue with the picture aspect using this driver. There is no selection for 16.9 aspect and as a result I ended up with good audio, but a picture that while it was the correct hieght, but was only 30cm wide. If I change the aspect ratio, then it records audio only and will not record video. I have read from other sights that Easier Cap DC60-007 usbtv007 does not work correctly with anything above windows 2000.
