Product Description

ConvertX offers the unique choice of three encoding formats: MPEG-1, for recording one hour of premier quality video on a VCD; MPEG-2, for up to two hours of high quality video on a DVD; and, for exceptional hard disc space-savings, MPEG-4. Capable of creating highly compressed video archives, MPEG-4 can be used to store 100 minutes of video on a standard CD or 10 hours on a DVD. A Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connection maximizes data throughput to the host computer, enabling high bit rate video capture using MPEG-2 compression.

Box itself works fine, but...

This is a real mixed bag.My impression is that the capture unit itself works pretty well.I've been using it to transfer Hi-8 video to DVDs.When I preview video on my PC, it's fine...audio and video synched up, etc.But actually getting useful output saved to disk has been a struggle.It's not clear to me if my problems have been my PC or their software, but it's been tough.Getting the InterVideo WinDVD Creator software to work at all was a hassle.Many software freezes, many reboots.Two tips:1) before...

Good for the price I guess.

This unit works quite well, except for a small line it leaves at the bottom of all my captured videos.It's a bit annoying, but otherwise, this unit works great.It is extremely easy to install and use....
