Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sabrent USB 2.0 TV Tuner/Video Capture Box with Remote Control - TV-USB20

Customer Review: Great Product - I'm really impressed
Summary: 5 Stars

I read the reviews on this site and others and they were 50-50. Half the people loved this thing and half hated it. I figured with those odds and this low price, I'd give it a shot. I don't understand what problems those who hated it were having. I had no trouble at all. In under 5 minutes I was watching TV on my computer.

The first step was to read the small setup manual that came with it. I connected the device to the cable line in my house and then plugged the USB into my Win XP laptop. As per the instruction I cancelled Window's new device window, then installed the drivers and software for the CD. It went perfectly smoothly.

I bought this device to transfer a video from my camera to the PC. The only hitch was the audio connection on the Sabrent does not match the audio connector on my camera. No problem. I put the tape into a VCR and connected with the TV cable. Moments later I was recording the video to my PC.

There is a ton of features in the software, that I need to start playing with. I also downloaded VirtualDub [...]) so I can edit the video. For the price of the Sabrent, I'm really impressed.
