Rating: Summary: For the money, there is nothing that compares Review: This product is incredible (Dazzle doesn't do a good job of indicating that it captures moving video as easy as it does still pictures from the video source.) The hardware installs in minutes and the software is about as user friendly as you're going get for video capture. If you are looking for high resolution video capture, this is the wrong product for you. The software and manual make setting options easy and the quality of the still images and video is just fine for a sub $100 product. I am sorry the other people had bad experiences, but if you purchase this product for the purposes it was intended to serve, you too will give it five stars!
Rating: Summary: Couldn't get it to work either - very disappointed Review: This product truly is easy to install, but then the database wouldn't open. I've tried contacting their tech support, but with no success so this product is going back to the store - I'm not wasting any more time on emails or money on long-distance calls. btw, I got the installation tested at the store and it did work there, so judging from these reviews there's obviously something with the product that's making it incompatible with certain computers. I personally wouldn't buy this online (sorry Amazon) because of the chance of it not working.

Rating: Summary: Cool Little Box For the Money Review: While I encountered a couple problems when trying to install and use this product, many of the problem were a result of outside factors. I happened to get a poorly pressed installation CD, which I had to return to the store to exchange. I found that the capture software was crashing on me every now and again, but discovered that my motherboard was sharing the USB IRQ with another device. (Unfortunately, the design of my motherboard does not allow me to assign a unique IRQ to my USB interface, so I had to return this product.) However, I was able to perform several hundred still captures at the maximum resolution of 1600 by 1200 pixels and save them to Photoshop 3.0 files--a nice feature, but would be nice if you could save in Photoshop 5.5 format. In my opinion, this product was meant for still captures. The stills look good for a product under $100. If you wish to capture low-res video, you can do that as well. But if high-quality motion video capture is the primary function you're looking for, I would go for a different product. Another nice feature of this product is that it draws its power from the USB controller. No external wall-wart power supply required. Just the USB cable.
