Great for the money, September 12, 2005
This review is from: ADS Technologies USBAV-708 Instant VideoMPX (Electronics)
This product is great for the money, however keep in mind a couple of things. It comes with Video Studio 8 VCD which is not the full version of Video Studio 8 -- you can only make VCDs with it, not DVDs. That is a hugh limitation. If you only care about VCD, make sure you get the patches for VS8.
But since you have VS8, you can upgrade to VS9 (full) for $50 which is a very nice product. I am able to do everything I want with VS9 including ripping scenes from DVDs as well as the VideoMPX capture device. Going this route, you save $50 on VS9 and get the DIVX encoder for free (a $20 value) which means the VideoMPX essentially pays for itself.
Whether you decide to go with VS8-VCD or VS9, make sure you get the new VideoMPX driver from ADS Tech. The one it ships with has issues. After I got the new driver, it works great.

it's awful, August 14, 2005
This review is from: ADS Technologies USBAV-708 Instant VideoMPX (Electronics)
I spent hours upon hours trying to get this program to work-no luck. Support line staff was of little to no use. I'm returning it.
