Pros: great burner and no problems yet. Have burned 170~ dvds in the time of 2 weeks with 50 being DL DVDs. Was well packaged in bubble wrap and also came with some trial software

Cons: none

Canopus / Grass Valley Bidirectional Analog/Digital Video Conversion ADVC110
Canopus / Grass Valley Bidirectional Analog/Digital Video Conversion ADVC110

Pros: Great little device have captured in the area of 150 hours of VHS media and still going strong. Do be aware it only comes with a 30 day trial of the manufactures software ( i haven't installed it myself as i had another program).

Cons: no full capture program included

Overall Review: What sets this appart from the other capture devices is it requires NO DRIVERS install on users part; xp 32bit, vista/7 64bit auto detect it as a digital capture device and install a oem style digital camcorder drivers for it, open up your preferred capture program and off you go. Other devices you have to check on OS compatibility of the device you want to use, and if the manufacture drop support for a new OS you now have a paper weight. Spend more money now save a lot in the long run

Pros: Well made jewel cases that hold the cd/dvd in place properly and lid says closed better than other brands

Cons: had a few damaged jewel cases when it arrived and unboxed

Overall Review: shipping cost is expensive but to be expected, was also expecting to have some bubble wrap around the cases but no just the box in a cardboard box

Pros: great price per dvd and no bad burns to any of the dvds. Burned them all at 8x speed

Cons: none

Overall Review: yes i burned at 8x vs max of 16x but i look at the faster you burn a cd/dvd the more likely you get a error
