There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
When I went to a big box electronics store, the salesperson recommended this Roxio product and showed me home video she had copied and stored on her phone. Seemed like decent quality and so I bought it. Had to return it because even though I said multiple times I am a Mac user I got it home and it was for Windows. So I found the Mac version on Amazon for considerably less (about $40 savings).
It was fairly simple to hook up and the instructions to begin taping are fairly simple, also. You will need a VCR, which I happened to have in a box in the closet.
So far, so good. You start the VCR, (or a video camera, apparently, can also be used) which is connected with the actual Roxio device to the computer. I hit Play on the VCR and Record on the computer screen where the Roxio window was displayed.
Again, so far so good.
After one tape was completed I wanted to watch it to check if it had worked (I had been burned on another companies similar device to turn cassette tapes into computer files). It's a bit of a challenge to even find where the file gets stored on the computer. Once found I attempted to drag and drop to iMovies but that didn't work, nor did moving the Roxio icon to the dock. So I had to search to even locate it, and still don't know precisely where on the hard drive it has sent the file.
But then , the bad news...
The picture quality is faded (even in the small window where it displays on the computer, so no telling what will happen when played large on a TV screen) and, worse, the sound does not sync to the picture. It's like the scene in "Singing in the Rain" where the picture gets ahead of the soundtrack.
I happened to be copying old episodes of TV variety shows, so both the speaking and the singing are off-kilter.
I will call tech support for the company-- remains to be seen if that is even responsive. If not this will be returned.
I don't know if there are other equivalent products-- this was the only brand I found-- but it is NOT recommended. Looks like I will be keeping my VCR and finding a place to store the old video tapes.
