    1 out of 5 stars The Dazzle didn't dazzle me........2007-12-20

    I'm an animation student whose school only provides us with the ability to get our work onto VHS. Basically, this is ridiculous and I need my work on a DVD or at least in some sort of digital format. This work is what's going to get me a job some day so I can't have it getting eaten up by a VCR or anything crappy that VCR/VHS do.

    Grand solution: the Dazzle. Unfortunately with animation there is a complete and utter need for each and every frame to be shown and for the sound and video to ACTUALLY be in sync. The Dazzle failed to sync the sound and failed to even record more than a few seconds without dropping frames or getting frozen.

    basically if you want bits and pieces of your VHS onto a DVD and want them to have sound completely off sync then the Dazzle is your product.

    I'm extremely disappointed, and I am wondering if anyone knows of a product similar to this that actually works?? Because I really need one!!

    2 out of 5 stars Not that great.......2007-12-18

    I does kind of work. It is not really combatible with vista. After attempting to load the software numerous times I gave up. The supposed "patch" download on the pinnacle web site is incredibly hard to locate as there are numerous other options and fixes that don't pertain to my operating system. The direct to dvd burning software that came with it does work though. It's OK if all you want to do is copy vhsc direct to dvd with no editing.

    4 out of 5 stars Excellent system and unbeatbale for the price.......2007-12-09

    I hesitated to buy this because similar digitizers seem to cost about twice as much (and so this seemed TOO cheap), and because several reviewers were unable to get the hardware to work at all. In fact, I did have some trouble installing the software -- one of the three CD-ROM's kept hanging up during the installation, until I selected the option to install only certain programs and avoided all the sample images and video. But after that, I was able to plug in my old VHS machine and create AVI movies from 25-year-old tapes. (Eventually I'll make DVD's.) I have yet to look at any of the instructions, and I was nonetheless able to add titles and simple transitions between scenes; the movie editor seems quite similar to iMovie on the Mac. I don't know if this will work for everyone, but on my 2006 Windows XP machine Dazzle really dazzled.

    4 out of 5 stars DAZZLLE MAYBE.......2007-12-07

    DAZZLE WILL WORK AS DESCRIBED ONLY IF YOUR COMPUTER IS STATE OF THE ART. YOU MUST HAVE USB 2 ON THE MOTHER BOARD, NOT ON A HUB, ON A HUB IT WILL NOT WORK. YOU MUST HAVE A LARGE HARD DRIVE WITH ENOUGH FREE MEORY FOR YOU TO CAPTURE THE VIDEO. ALSO YOUR PC MUST HAVE A MINIMUM OF 2 GIG OF RAM.I TRIED DAZZLE ON THREE OF MY MACHINES UNTIL I WAS ABE TO GET IT TO WORK.
    I'M STILL PLAYING WITH IT TO TRY AND EDIT AND MAKE A MOVIE.I'M ABLE TO COPY FROM VCR AND BURN A DVD.IF YOU HAVE A MACHINE THAT IS TWO YEARS OLD YOU PROBABLY WORT BE ABLE TO GET IT TO WORK. THE ANSWER IS BUY A NEW COMPUTER.

    1 out of 5 stars Disappointing.......2007-11-30

    I purchased the Dazzle DVC90 and Pinnacle Studio Plus 10. I have a fast computer (Core2 CPU 2.13 GHz, 2 GB memory, raid drive)and the latest XP updates. There were multiple problems with Pinnacle's installs, patches, drivers. With Pinnacle's support I did numerous installs, manual software deletes, registration deletes, Windows Installer Cleanups, and uninstalls. It took me days to get the Dazzle to work. One final problem was the need to turn the sound off on the source camcorder.

    The Pinnacle Studio Plus v10 software is also a disappointment. I have yet to be able to burn a DVD! I was forced to buy a $5 update just to read a common MPEG2 file. Silly! And I have entered about 6 long registration codes. Too much! And why the heck do the product designers have to use their own unique icons for opening a directory, browsing, etc? This need to be different only makes the learning curver sharper. Not too smart! Big designer egos and bad design.
