> 3 dayThis works great. However sometime the device is not recognized and you have to unplug the USB and re-insert it only after the software tells you its not there. Then works great.

> 3 dayNot bad. The usb end had to be squeezed a little because it kept falling out but once I did that it worked great in the wizard mode. I am still having problems in the advanced mode. I found other software online that works very well if the video is saved to the computer in advanced more and then edited in the other software where I am able to put nicer introductions and some fading in and out. As far as the equipment is concerned, not bad but I would suggest better software like Wondershare video editor for editing the videos after converting them.

> 3 dayPretty easy set up and use for a novice. Exactly what I was looking for. I was able to set it up and capture a video the I got it in the mail. I bought this to digitize a fairly large collection of home footage that has varying quality (some grainier, darker, lighter, etc.). Ive had it for about a month now and captured approx. 6 hrs worth of footage. I did end up scraping about 4 hrs worth because Im still playing around with the settings. Thats more my bad though, I should have waited until I had the software figured out. The only real problems Ive had thus far was shipping from the seller, an operator error on my part, and time to capture the footage.

> 3 dayEasy to use. Instruction book is long so hard to read on the computer and too many pages to print. At first it did not wor because my computer did not recognize the right drivers to make it run but the customer service people that I talked to helped me and within 15 minutes it ran perfectly. I love the product

> 3 dayIve tried at least two other analog A/V to USB converters in the past and sent them back because either they didnt install correctly at all or produced very small, poor quality digital video copies. This device installed flawlessly on my Windows 10 desktop machine. I didnt use the included CD, but instead downloaded the latest drivers directly from Honestech. I followed the installation instructions exactly and allowed time for everything to install. I used the program so far to save an MPG file from an old VHS tape and to record a DVD using my PCs DVD burner. In both situations, everything was flawless. The mpg file was full-screen with quality equal to that of the VHS tape (old home movie). I havent played with some of the other features of the program, but so far Im pleased with this device and the software. It is serving the purpose for which I bought it.

> 3 dayAfter recording 40 DVDs excellent results, also have used on VHS and Super 8 cam recorder. I used the picture software that accompanies the product to pull photos from my scanner and crop and reprint. I was a little skeptical when I read the other reviews but as sold on this product. I would highly recommend anyone wanting to save their old VHS tapes movies to purchase this product.

> 3 dayI followed the directions step by step and had a problem at first. I called their tech support line, and they were quite helpful. I think the only issue with this product for me is I do wish there was a faster way to record the VHS as opposed to real time. Ive only messed around with this for about an hour, and it does what its intended. I will try to call the tech support to see if there is a faster way to record.

> 3 dayImpressed with the way this converter software and device has evolved from version 3 that I purchased 2 plus years ago. This new (Latest) version software makes video transfer a breeze in all ways. Well worth the price for all it does and all that is included. Great for converting VHS as well as 8MM video to newer formats to stream, burn to DVD or watch directly on TV..And yes, shipping was as always super fast.

Greater than one weekThis package does a pretty good job of capturing VHS tape video for editing and creation of a DVD. The quality of the transfer depends on the quality of the VHS tape. The software is basic and easy to use, but includes most features that are necessary. I did not try to record audio only or create a slide show, so I cant speak to all aspects of the software. The hardware seems to be well built and the software works smoothly on my relatively old Windows 7 machine. In all, it is what I expected.

> 3 daySoftware wont load, even the download from their website wont run with windows 10 directions say to select the .exe file but neither the disc or the zip file have a .exe file on them...... doh! Im researching now how to work around this but honestly I should not have to read hours of technical articles written in programming terminology to get a commercially produced program to run on my computer. Im going to try a few more things before I send it back to Amazon. Update: I was able to find the setup file and run the file. Once setup was complete I was able to get audio but not video to record. I called customer service and left a message they called me back and had me remove and reload the software. This time vidbox showed up as a video source. I attempted to record a video but the application stopped responding. Restarted it and tried again same deal. Restart d it and tried again and it worked. Now Im recording a 50 min video and so far so good. Currently recording the first video will update after video is done.
