Amazon isn't (for a change!) the cheapest place to buy this but, if you haven't got a dedicated sound card and you want to put your videos onto your PC, then burn them onto DVD, then this will do the trick. Just a few things to be aware in order to maximise results:
Its a USB connection. That it means it has to share with anything else thats plugged into a USB port anywhere on your PC. USB isn't most efficient way to transfer and, as transferring analogue data into digital is demanding of your PC's resources its definitely best to give this product all the help it can get when you are using it. If you don't, you might well end up with sight and sound sync problems. So.....
1. unplug anything else in a USB port when you're using it
2. close down all those programmes running in the background (right click on the icons on the right of the "tray" at bottom of your screen and exit them.
I found the bundled software not very useful - except when you come to burning your movie onto a DVD. Then it's great for building menu screens and chapters. You are much better off using Microsoft's MovieMaker (free download if you haven't already got it bundled). To maximise results, use Alt+Ctrl+Delete to bring up the Processes list on your PC, scroll down to moviemaker.exe, right click and select High under "Priority" (Just do this when your "capturing" video using moviemaker - you can put priority back to "Normal" after you have finished)

This item did not work with XP or Vista on 3 different computers, even after troubleshooting using earlier reviews and trying other solutions found on the internet. It would not capture video using the U-lead software or Windows Moviemaker. I would suggest spending a bit more money on a better-reviewed product - which is what I am going to do. I only gave it one star as Amazon won't let me leave it at zero.

VINE™ VOICE
It works, and rather well too. I popped in the CD, loaded the drivers and software, plugged the adapter into the USB socket and away it went.
The video capture is pretty good, the writing to DVD is a bit slow, but this is just as likely to be my laptop than anything else. The bottom line is, I needed something to be able to put my videos onto DVD at a reasonable price, and this does it.

NOT FOR MAC USERS!
Unfortunately it is not supported by the easycap viewer for Mac OS X, so stay away!! I don't know how it works with Windows, though.

Probably a fake unit
I received this on time at a cost of £9 carriage (£18 total). It would probably have been cheaper by Post Office Next Day delivery by 1.30pm. Read more
