 Can-o-pus ADVC110 Converter November 6, 2008
Great product. Works well capturing old home movies. Would definitely buy again! Chim-cheerie!
Major upgrade for me October 25, 2008
I'm really happy with the ADVC110. I had been using the PYRO A/V Link, which worked pretty well for several months but then it stopped being functional (dropping frames, the analog/digital switch stopped working so I couldn't get it to stick to analaog) ... anyway, this one was so easy to install. It's really portable because there' no power supply required, so I can use it on my Mac and various Windows PCs in our studio. Not a dropped frame. Works like a charm. Just love it.
Canopus Converter ADVC110 October 9, 2008
Another Fabulous Grass Valley product! Works just as concisely and easily as advertised. I use the windows platform and it is great. I know it would work equally well with MAC. My laptop has a four pin firewire so I am using their adapter. Their tech support is great. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone wishing to convert analog to DV!
Great product! September 30, 2008
This product is super easy to use! I literally connected it to my computer and DVD player and was ready to go! Money well-spent!
Best capture device for the home user September 18, 2008
I purchased this on a recommendation from a video professional - they were using this with a Mac over firewire for VHS capture. I bought mine for the same reason, to transfer VHS tapes to DVDs - and I could not be more happy. In typical fashion I took the device out of the box, hooked the cables up, put it in the firewire and done! There is no power required (using the thick 6-pin firewire cable provides power from the laptop) and there are no drivers required - the device is instantly detected as a camera.
I did all my movie collecting from iMovie and had to do absolutely nothing. I tried this box with different VCRs and it never failed - even when the tape was extremely degraded or the tracking was not very good, I got _no_ dropped frames, audio de-synchronization or other problems which seem to plague similar devices.
Physically the device is very solid, never gets warm or otherwise feel as if it will fall apart. The plugs are not as solid as I would have liked (if you have a thick monster cable it will feel awkward pushing it in) and the connectors themselves are sunken in which puts a limit to how wide the plug can be. I tried it with various cables I had in the house and never had problems.
An excellent (and undocumented) feature of this device is that by holding the "select" button for ~20 seconds after start-up (no need to do it before you plug it in, you'll see when the event happens) you enable the "de-Macrovision" filter; regardless of what VCR you have, you'll never have to buy a special box or have to deal with complicated setups. The device itself is _not_ a timebase corrector however,
