Hello,
I want to connect a camcorder via an S-Video cable to a computer via a USB port (it works on TV after testing).
After purchasing an S-Video to USB adapter called "Easycap," I can't find drivers for Windows 10 64-bit despite several searches (notably on: http://visser.io/2015/06/easycap-drivers-for-windows-8-1/
When connecting the "Easycap" adapter, it is indeed recognized but I can't change the source to the adapter.
Can someone help me?
Thank you in advance.

I think you're getting into a mess, read in my summary the frame in bold
Video transfer box
Hello, to transfer the content of an analog VHS, VHS/C, 8mm, Hi8 tape or an analog video stream, you need to connect the camcorder or VCR or other device to an "external box" that handles the "hardware" conversion of the "analog stream" to "digital" and connect the box to the computer via a USB cable. The file is converted to MPEG2, an easy-to-burn format compatible with all players, and allows editing with "Studio"
You connect the box and camcorder or VCR with an S-VHS connection recommended or composite (less good) (RCA yellow) and a cord for sound (2 RCA red, white). For the VCR, you need a SCART connection with an adapter or cord with "out" direction or with a switch in/out, output S-VHS or composite RCA yellow (less good) plus sound, two RCA outputs red white
Remember to select PAL for color
I recommend the Dazzle Video Recorder
You can also find it used on the web and resell it when you no longer need it
There are exotic products like USB keys and 4 wires, cheaper, but beware, they often lead to messes, judging by the desperate messages from members on the forum

Since the format is 4:3, the image quality can only be judged on a living room TV screen, the link:
