Question / Help What to do with a .ilj file?

[Curveball]

To transfer and digitize some old Hi8 videotapes to my 64-bit Windows 10 PC, I used a video capture device with Honestech VHS to DVD 3.0 software that gives me a video file in .ilj ( dot eye-L-J ) format. Apparently the only way to view such a file is in that particular software. I and others complained about this in Amazon comments for the product. One of them says he was able to create a more widely usable video file format using OBS. His description of the procedure was spare. Might someone here be kind enough to spoon feed me on the process? Thanks.

The VHS to DVD program can save your current progress as a project file. The file can be identified by the .ilj extension at the end of the file name. The “.ilj” project file does not contain any actual video, but instead, serves as a reference file for the VHS to DVD program. When opened, it tells the program where to find and load all the necessary video clips and edits associated with that specific project

so this file is useless for any other software

i think you can add a new source to your scene "Video Capture Device" and select your Honestech Device
