Overall Review: I notice several reviews that stated once you have converted all your VHS tapes to DVD, this device becomes ULEAD does not have the right stuff to handle DVD DOLBY or so you end up with a silent DVD. If you try to convert DVD with DOLBY to DVD, it will There is still much more to this than I have space to write about.Ĭons: Yes the ULEAD software could be better, but for VHS to DVD this is ok. Learn to make menus and add menu clips and add music to your DVD menus to make your own personal touch to your mastered DVDs. Learn to use the 'mulit-trim' feature and you will be an expert at removing commercials from your old recorded broadcasts. There is a learning curve with the ULEAD software, but in general it is fine for taking the captured VHS and converting to DVD. If you have a lot of tapes this is an easy way to convert them. There are some got-chas but all in all I am happy with the purchase. I got my Diamond One Touch in mid February and have been converting these successfully. In the meantime, the Diamond One Touch Video Capture was the most economical solution to converting the tapes I wanted to make into DVD. I plan to recycle the factory recorded tapes to a senior center and find a recycle place for the broadcast recorder videos. Pros: I have about 100 or so vintage VHS tapes, some as old as 21 years. Now it is open and will STAY OPEN while you are recording and the best part is you can adjust color, saturation, brightness etc while you video is being displayed.I am using windows 7 64 bit so the Diamond 500 does what it claims IF you install it correctly.The Arco software wasn't used so don't have any imput on it. It will overlap a bit onto the blue viewing screen but won't be a problem. Here's what you do.and this happened by accident.Ĭlick the little gear for settings, bring up the screen with all the adjustment bars and DON'T CLOSE IT.!! Move the screen over to a corner of your screen. It has been said that when you go into setting adjustments, after you hit the record button, you cannot Get into the settings untill you stop recording.Right but WRONG. [ ALSO GET A HEAD CLEANER BEFORE YOU START AND PLAN TO USE IT A LOT BECAUSE THOSE OLD TAPES WILL LEAVE A BIT OF TAPE GUNK ON THE HEADS AFTER A WHILE.įor those that are not having a problem with the Diamond, I learned a little trick here. it is VHS tape so don't exspect much more quality than what is on the original tape. Getting those OLD vhs or Video 8 Camcorder tapes onto your Pc.ītw: garbage in/garbage out. So as far as a Analog to digital highway, it's perfect for just that. I use my own editing software,[ I prefer Corel Video Studio and Imgburn for final Writing to a dvd. I have it attached to a 8MM analog VCR and I am able to import those 20 yr old Super 8 tapes to my Laptop.įrom this point on, I'm done with the Diamond and any of the encosed software. $39.00 products do that some times.In this case the drivers installed correctly with no tweaking.Ī dozen reasons or more why the diamond doesn't work for many so won't get into bad installs or Over the Top exspectations for a 39.00 product with minimal editing software. Lot of people GIVE UP to quickly I guess.Sometimes u have to be a bit smarter than the software and do a bit of tweaking. I guess I am one of those who went ahead and bought this unit despite a lot of bad reviews.Īin't that the case most times? you have sucess with a product that many give a thumbs down on.Īctually, as long as I read at least 5 or 6 reviews where as the person has sucess with a product and is using the same OS I am, then I know it works and don'y pay attention to the "don't buy this product" reviews.Apples and Oranges I assume.
