1 out of 5 stars very poor quality as price   September 4, 2008
It is very poor quality video and poor compression rate. I just wasted money and time. Never buy again.


2 out of 5 stars OneTouch OK; ULead software poor   September 2, 2008
I purchased the OneTouch capture device in order to convert 8mm tapes over to DVD. The OneTouch device functioned fine. I was able to convert my vido tapes into a digital format. The ULead software, that came with the OneTouch, however did not function as advertised. It worked intermittently burning DVD's or and was unable to save to my computer into a DVD (ASCI) format to be burned by other software later. It would run for about 2 hours (one hour of video) and at 99% complete, the software would crash. The few times that it did burn a DVD, Christmas music and a Christmas border was present. It could not be turned off.

I contacted ULead, whereby I was informed that they no longer provided product support for my version. They suggested I "upgrade" to their current product. I spent $40 on the OneTouch Device. ULead wanted an additional $80 to upgrade my software. I declined.

The OneTouch capture works well enough to get info from tape to digital format, so I will be keeping it. I have given up attempting to burn DVD's from those files, though, and recommend staying away from any ULead products. I also attempted to contact OneTouch, but their website would not accept consumer requests.

To summarize, I would not recommend the package purchase if your desire is to burn DVD's. However, if you simply want to convert analog tapes into digital format, OneTouch will accomplish that.



4 out of 5 stars What I expected   September 1, 2008
I had read the mixed Amazon reviews before, so I got what I expected: for a price that's not too high, I am able to transfer footage from my analog camera to my computer. User interface is decent. Quality is not great, as some had warned, but I'm not sure that can be avoided; I've used $2000 equipment before and I still lost a lot of quality digitizing footage.


5 out of 5 stars Works as advertised!   August 29, 2008
I didn't have any problems moving over a VHS to DVD. Worked as advertised. Very happy with this purchase.


4 out of 5 stars One Touch Video was simple and worked great   August 25, 2008
Diamond VC500 One Touch Video Capture Device
I know nothing about electronics, so I was not sure if this would work for me or even if this was what I needed. It was great!!! So easy to use and I was able to load all my home VHS videos into my computer then copy them to DVD's. I would recommend this item.
