Customer Reviews:
 Excellent item and software - two problems though, 2008-07-02
This is really going to be a review of the capturing/editing software, as the Dazzle unit itself is simply an adapter to connect a VCR to your computer. It has an attached USB cable on one end, and jacks for audio/video and S-Video, so making the connection is as easy as it gets. There are two problems with this item, so I'll mention them right away. First, the instruction sheet mentions that the cables you need (A/V and S-Video) are included, and they are not. I was planning on getting higher quality cables anyway, so it wasn't a big deal for me. Just be aware should you be looking at the Dazzle. The second problem is a bit more serious. Remember that "instruction sheet" I mentioned? Well, that's all it is - literally. A two-sided sheet, in mutltiple languages, showing how to connect the Dazzle. There is nothing, not a thing, to teach you how to operate the capturing/editing/burning software. You have to figure it out on your own. Those issues aside, I am very pleased with it. It's really not that difficult to figure out, but previous experience with other editing software could be helpful.) The quality of the captured video is excellent, but obviously it won't be any better than the original source material. The video effects are numerous, but so far I've only used the basics - editing the volume, brightness, etc. If you're willing to invest some time in figuring out the software, you won't be disappointed. The Dazzle editing software is easy to use, and provides very good results.
