I'm not OP, but I've had good luck with a high quality VHS deck and an elgato video capture.

I want to invest in a Domesday Duplicator this year, which should provide an even better quality.

I was tempted by the elgato but I watched a video that showed it was poor quality.

Perhaps a VHS to DVD recorder is the way to go

I've been perfectly satisfied using the S-Video on the elgato. If you use composite, not so great.

This is the video in question, which seems to indicate the elgato software is to blame for the poor quality.

That’s the one! Although I don’t think they used S-Video so perhaps that’s better. But like you say, the software was to blame with no change of bitrate etc
