Customer Reviews:

Worth the Cost [Posted on 2002-10-24]
I used to have an ATI TV PCI card, which is great for image captures, but gave me (and numerous other people I talked to) a headache for video capturing itself. The ADS USB Instant Video is a good deal for the price, and is excellent for good-quality video capturing (Excellent frame rate, just make sure other programs are off and the capturing isn't [messed] up at the start). Plenty of other excellent features, the software is a good-quality editing package. Compared to the ATI card though, capturing images is a bit annoying. Otherwise, it's worth it!

Connections are very easy, and it's quite user-friendly and easy to learn, as I'm not a techie!

ADS Instant Video [Posted on 2003-01-07]
You get audio signal onlt with no picture when you try to capture home movie from comcaorder tape. In very few case, I captured the video footage, but i just get the audio when you paly it back.

When you sent the problem to ADS customer service, you get automatical e-mail response said they will respond to your questions ASAP. but, you never get e-mail unless you call them. the phone line is so busy, you wouldn't be so patient.

Great for home videos [Posted on 2007-10-03]
I turned it into a Live Web Cam over the Internet, use it for video conferencing, or create and share home movies over the Internet and more! It includes all the cables and software you need to share videos and snapshots in an Instant. Just plugged in my camcorder and used VideoStudio Basic to capture and edit your home movies. Then save my movie in all the common video formats such as .AVI, QuickTime, VCD, MPEG1, Real or .ASF streaming video and instantly publish to the web or copy to a CD.
