> 3 dayEasy to install S/W and hardware. Had problems with the VHS conversion but could have been my equipment. Beta conversion to DVD went well after a learning curve. Users guide installs with S/W installation which is handy. Support answered my questions vis e-mail in a timely manner and helped with a problem. Read the Users Guide thoroughly before you start because capturing, editing, and burning can be tricky. Suggest use of DVD-RW when first burning project. Then if o.k. remaining discs can be burned using one time burn DVDs. That way cuts down on bad burns and discs that have to be discarded. Warning: My Sony Blu-Ray DVD player would not play DVDs with title and menus in content. Eliminating them did not bother me but it might some users. Did not try editing.

> 3 dayEasy to use. Instruction book is long so hard to read on the computer and too many pages to print. At first it did not wor because my computer did not recognize the right drivers to make it run but the customer service people that I talked to helped me and within 15 minutes it ran perfectly. I love the product

> 3 dayI didnt do my research to make sure this product was compatible with what I had. So, I believe that the product is a 5, but what is truly a 5 is the service. It truly was one of the easiest and flawless returns Ive ever done. No one really wants to return items, but if you must, making it this easy makes it so much better. Thank you.

> 3 dayWhile it functions, this is impressive software with several clever features that make converting old VHS or 8mm tapes to DVD format. But users should be patient, as the program will lock up without warning during the capture phase and youll have to close it out with task manager and start over again. The phone-access customer support staff were friendly and offered suggestions to fix the glitch, but to no avail. Now out $60, Ill be looking for other software options as I dont have time to attempt capturing videos 2 or 3 times.

> 3 dayWorks Great. The only problem I had is I had to download the software. The software cd that came with is had a large scratch. Would not load the setup file due to the large scratch. I didnt care about the CD. Im just happy that I have this for my home videos.

> 3 dayNot bad. The usb end had to be squeezed a little because it kept falling out but once I did that it worked great in the wizard mode. I am still having problems in the advanced mode. I found other software online that works very well if the video is saved to the computer in advanced more and then edited in the other software where I am able to put nicer introductions and some fading in and out. As far as the equipment is concerned, not bad but I would suggest better software like Wondershare video editor for editing the videos after converting them.

> 3 dayThe USB Box is great and works very well. The Video Editing SW works to edit video. The editing tools are very basic. Much time spent single stepping in frame, and second increments to get to the frame to cut. Makes DVDs that play on your computer, but does not make those that play in a video player. Some how apparently not included.
