On inserting the included CD into my DVD-RW
drive, I was presented with onscreen instructions for registering and installing
the software. Once installed I connected up my VCR with composite cables, I do
not have an s-video cable, but I have a feeling that s-video is superior to
composite. I was then ready to begin and I recorded some videos which featured me
as a child in school plays and Daisy Dares You (Zzzap). The process was
straight forward and I was pleased with the results. As another reviewer
pointed out, this product does not produce HD quality video from a SD device.
However this is not what I expect from media that was once SD, although the
results are very good. The software provides you with the option configure your
recordings to be recorded to DVD and for uploading to YouTube or Facebook.
What is in the box:
The box contains: the dazzle DVD recorded
HD, Pinnacle Studio software CD and user manual.
Build quality:
The build quality of product is very good
and has a suitably long cable to connect to your pc.
Pros:
+ Easy to setup
+ Upload to Social Media Sites
+ Record your old VCR videos to DVD
Cons:
- Cables not included
Conclusion:
I think this product is very good for the
task it performs. I am not a fan of the design choice, but it is not something I
will be using on a regular. It is fantastic to be able to record old VCR videos
as it provides an easier means of rewatching them and is going to help reduce
the old videos I have stored away. It would have been a nice bonus if some
input cables were included so I wouldn’t have needed to hunt one out, but this
is clearly stated on the product. If you are looking to convert some olds videos
to DVD or share them on the internet, then I would recommend this product.
