Needed to get video from old camcorders and VHS recorder to my laptop to save to DVD and this product combined with a scart adaptor made it so simple I transferred it all in the time it took to play the footage.... recommended for anyone with old footage.

I was looking for something easy and this was just what the Doctor ordered. Connections to my computer directly to my video camera was very simple. Beginning a recording and transferring to CD was a simple as 1-2-3. As a surprised bonus the software allows you to capture photos while video recording for some even better pictures. I would have to say this has been my best purchase to this date.
EZ Grabber - really easy! May 29, 2009

Wow, how easy can you get! I was a bit doubtful about converting my VHS tapes because the price for the converts were so expensive. I wait a year and I find EZ Grabber. Inexpensive, good reviews, and very easy. Just load the software and away you go. Up and running in 10 minutes.
Highly recommend this product.

My overall experience with this product is thankfully GOOD. I was very wary about the uneven feedback for this product but thought "what the heck..IF this works...." - which for the price is admittedly a bit of a risky strategy.
I bought the 'Vista version' of the EZGrabber in December 2008. You might find this review helpful if you've got PowerDirector on your pc.
The product manual is pretty good. It has screen shots of all the key stages of the install with good visual and written instructions. The English instructions are at the back of the booklet and are intelligible. My advice, just take your time. There's still some areas they could improve on with the installation instructions but I'd say if you're used to installing software you should have no problems at all.
I selected the video system as "PAL_BDHIG" but really, this is no big deal you can just try the different options.
I do have a pretty hefty pc (AMD Athlon 64X2 Dual 2.02GHz, 1GB RAM, Windows XP SP3, DirectX 9.x) so look carefully at the product System Specification is my advice.
Once EZGrabber is installed (<15 mins end-to-end for me), I tried recording using the user interface consul that EZGrabber supplies. It worked fine but I found (by accident) that for me the easiest was to use Cyberlink PowerDirector Express. If you have this software, you just connect-up the cables supplied by EZGrabber, plug the EZGrabber USB in, open PowerDirector and choose Capture. PowerDirector detects EZGrabber as an "analogue device" and should show a screen with a red record button. You simply press play on your video player (in my case a JVC video camera - with mono sound so yellow and white cable connections only) then you should see & hear the video playing back on your pc screen in PowerDirector. I assume it should work more or less the same with other software like PowerDirector.
EZGrabber records fine when Norton Antivirus is running on my system. More importantly, I had no problems at all with image quality or sound synch. That said be realistic about the quality of VHS input. Even so 12 year old video cam tapes recorded well for me. Newer ones (still 8 years old), that have been replayed less frequently recorded really well. Each 45 min tape takes up about 2.4Gb of space if recorded in PowerDirector using the DVD High Quality setting.
Well, it's back to the recordings, looks like I'm going to be able to offer up a nice Xmas present of a DVD set of precious recordings to a nearest and dearest.

Bought this set on Tuesday, delivered Friday. Absolutely brilliant! Mr Parkin York
The best bargain I have purchased. This TV (Hannspree) looks and sounds better then the well known brands, but at half the price £299. Thanks!
