1.0 out of 5 stars ABYSMAL PRODUCT, January 24, 2008

By	Steven R. Johnson (Cleveland Hts., OH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have been working with this product for months and have only gotten lousy video captures from it from several formats -- VHS, DVD, and laserdisc. This is not the first capture device I've used; I was very happy with my WinTV PVR until Mr. Bill Gates and his Windows Vista OS rendered that obsolete; so I have plenty of experience with such equipment. Yet after all this time and after talking to half of India and finding no workable setting or form of input, I am done with this rotten waste of money. One more item for the Vista scrapheap.

4.0 out of 5 stars good product, November 29, 2007

By	Bobby Pittman - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

this is tough for me to review as I haven't used any hardware/software like it. with that said, I found it easy to use (keep in mind I'm 37 and not real computer literate). most of the stuff I did was VCR to DVD and the quality was only good - likely due to the old tape and cheap VCR player. I'd buy it again.

1.0 out of 5 stars $100 you shouldn't spend, May 29, 2008

By	IT Admin "Microsoft Bob" (Seattle WA) - See all my reviews

I have to agree with the other 1 star user. This device falls very short on picture quality in all formats. The Pinnacle software that comes with this hardware is weak at best. I'm not saying it won't work. What I'm saying is it is very unstable and takes several attempts to get what you want. The worst part about each attempt is it may fail after 25 minutes into the video.
I have 3GB of 600Mhz RAM and a 256MB video card so it can't be starving for resources.
I would have returned it but I never got around to it. I'll be yanking my old video capture card and using it. I would recommend getting a capture card and using it for a better quality of video. My old capture card was very cheap but compared to this hardware it is night and day different. If you have bad vision and everything is blurry already this may be the device for you!!!! If they are precious memories your looking to backup then steer clear of this device.
