Dazzle disappointment
Dazzle, it's namesake apart - disappoints. The box clearly says that it works with Windows Vista. The software installed with windows warning that there were compatibility issues with Pinnacle Systems software. The patches were installed and Studio 10 and Instant DVD recorder crashed (Windows blue screen)- service is non existant and their online forum and support is of no use. I will be returning this to Amazon.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT UNTIL DAZZLE CORRECTS ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS.

Fantastic Video Capture Device!
I review Wii games for youtube and amazon. I have tried a couple others but this one has been the most reliable and best quality.
Its as easy as going into the program, then hitting capture...as long as your using XP. If your using Vista it gets more tricky. You have to go to there website and download the USB drivers so it will work. It's not as easy as there other updates to find, you have to search for it.
My only other complaint is that you can only record MPG. I would have liked the option to record in AVI, since I use Adobe Premiere Elements and it can't handle MPG. I have to convert everything I do.
However, these complaints don't take away from the product itself. It's easy to use, and produces excellent quality. Buy it now!
