VC500 is not recommended,

This review is from: Best Data Products Diamond VC500 One Touch Video Capture Device (Personal Computers)
Software installed easily on Windows 7 home premium. Video shown on capture screen looks great. However, once the capture button is hit, the video gets distorted and grainy - a significant loss of quality.There is no way to adjust file size - the file from a 2hr Hi8 video tape is over 200Gb and too large to fit on the hard drive. When capturing from VHS tape, the Showbiz App keeps crashing and is not usable at all. Diamond Multimedia home page does not support this product - no improved drivers or debugged apps available. I have owned several video capture products over the list 10 years, and the VC500 just does not measure up. You are better off using 5 yr old technology than the VC500. The VC500 is not recommended.

This review is from: Best Data Products Diamond VC500 One Touch Video Capture Device (Personal Computers)
This product was EXACTLY what I was looking for. I literally got the product 2 days after I ordered it. The quality was very good from both vhs and camcorders (it's all relative of course - don't expect any better than the original recording quality obviously). It was extremely easy to use and to adjust the settings. The one thing I would recommend is to use "Windows DVD maker" if you have Windows 7 rather than the ULead Software that comes included. I know the ULead software probably offers more options, but honestly it slowed down my computer way too much, I couldn't even get it to work properly, and for what I wanted (i.e. a cool title screen, the ability to easily navigate scenes, and dvds playable in a normal dvd player) Windows DVD maker was fantastic (also very easy to use). It also allows you to fit 2.5 hrs of video onto each 4.7 gig dvd,which is great!Again, just a FANTASTIC PRODUCT!

Best Data Products Diamond VC500 One Touch Video Capture DeviceThis device comes complete with all you need to store video data on a computer. Be it a little movie or a snapshot you require, this item will do it quick and simple.The driver supplied on the accompanying CD is easily installed on Windows (even Vista)and the configuration is very easy and lets you choose the directory where you want to store your pictures or video. Also you can select the function of the "one touch" button on the device so it will store a snapshot or a video. At all time, you can also control the capture directly from the monitor on your PC. We use the VC500 along with a special camera to capture images of the inside of engines in a mechanic shop. As we most of the time are in tight locations, the "one touch" feature is a great asset. In conclusion this is the best gadget I have acquired in a long time.
