Summary: Very good device
Review: One of the few hardware mpeg2 digitizer cards that works well on low-end systems (starting with AMD K6-II 400 mhz or higher).everything is done on the chip on board, so this is 100% hardware mpeg2 encoding, it does not hog your system's CPU. Warning: has several compatibility issues, specially on systems already full with pci cards, because this card needs to have one IRQ asigned to it exclusivelly, and will have issues if there is no free IRQ left for it to use. Conclusion: install it on a system devoted entirelly to video digitizing. Do not install for use in your everyday PC.

Summary: Ultimate Junk
Review: The only good thing about this product is the software (Studio 8). I bought a DVC 150. I spent two days trying to get Tech support, and 45 minutes on long distance toll calls to their version of tech support (they do not offer toll free service). Their tech suggested that I use a 1394 setup for better quality and ease of use. They never did answer the email I sent for assistance 4 days ago.
I paid $150.00 for this piece of junk desk orniment. A firewire card and cable is only $75.00 at Best Buy. And I have been able to down load my grandson's birthday from my Sharp Digital Viewcam just like I wanted to with out unnecessary grief and agrivation.

Summary: Terrible Engineering and Support from Dazzle
Review: This was the 2nd and last Dazzle product I'll ever buy. The first was the "Snazzi" capture card which ceased to work under Win 2K, then this product ceased to work under Windows XP. Dazzle must be playing tricks with interrupts and other low level hardware to make these things incompatible. Buh bye Dazzle, see you in Chapter 11.
