I consider my technical level to be somewhat high and I could not get this device to work with Vista Home Premium (32 bit processor). The program DVD did not have drivers for Vista so I dowloaded and installed an updated driver, followed the rest of the instructions to a tee, connected my VCR to the converter and got as far as launching the program. At that point, the program shut down. I am now researching other devices to see if I can get something compatable.

I was looking for a cheap way to transfer my analog camcorder tapes to my PC. Well, as the old saying goes, "You get what you pay for". I'm running Vista and it was a pain to get this item to work with it. Don't bother installing the software that came with the thing...you have to unload it to install new software from their website anyway. Once I loaded the Vista driver I got the device to work, but the video is very poor quality...missing alot of frames. It was very choppy. I tried disabling my anti-virus software and any unnecessary software running in the background but the quality was still poor. Don't waste your money. I bought a Canopus ADVC-55, which cost much more but was worth it.

Won't work. Maybe it's Vista, maybe not. I have a brand new machine with killer specs, so it's not a tech problem, other than Vista. Weird error messages don't make sense. Says the driver is out of date which is weird since I JUST BOUGHT IT. Don't buy it.

I wanted a simple HW and SW set up to convert UK, German and US VHS videos to DVDs. This is exactly what the DX2 does. Two enhancements I would like : (1) The resulting DVD should not be region dependent and play on any DVD player but all formats I produced play on a computer. (2) The ADS converter for creating CDs from LPs can be set up to stop recording once the LP has reached the end. A similar function for the DX2 would help.

I purchased the ADS Tech DVD Xpress DX2 Video Converter for my hp Pavilion Windows XP SP3 PC. I have the earlier version (DVD Express) which works very well. Downloaded the software with no problems. Checked the UBS connection through my Windows XP device manager, all was fine. Everthing worked well (REVIEW,sound was fine). When I tried to use the CapWiz 'RECORD' button, Revcived an unexpected ULead MPEG Error. I tried to contact ADS support but could not get any answer to my requests. It ssems the ADS company was sold recently and current tech support is no-operative. I finally found, by accident, a 1-800 number at the new company and it turned out that it was the new ADS tech support. After relating my problem to them I was rudely informed that I was on my own. I have returned the product. I obviously can't recommend this converter based on my experience.

bought this device and regret it!...cd driver never work, first i thought it was my driver, so i went i bought another similar thing from radioshack and its been working flawlessly (including the cd driver with arcsoft software also). have been called and send email....the phone call of course useless...never recieved reply, the email have 2 responses and the 2nd response is..." I do not quite understand your question"!!. my question was so simple.....make this device to work!!!
