Buyer Reviews :
I opted to buy the Dazzle 80 because of its ease of installation. After a few weeks of reading web sites about creating VCD's I created an excellent VCD using this product. The only downfall was that it took me a few days to learn the ins and outs of creating VCD's,Compression,Codec's etc.
But it was definately worth taking that extra time rather than throwing away CD's.
I used VirtualDub for the capture with the DivX:Mpg4-low motion Codec, this worked great. I tested different Codecs. (Don't set the compression to high though). I then had to the split the file into segments because of the Windows 4GB AVI limit. I used The Dazzle software for the split. I then converted the 352X240 AVI segments to 720X480 using the Dazzle software, then I converted the 720X480 AVI segments to MPG1 using TMPGEnc. I then re-joined the MPG segments back together using TMPGEnc.
Then I used VCD-Easy to create the DAT file and burn to my CD. The file ran really well even on my DVD player. After much reading and studying about capturing, I thought it was excellent for a first attempt. I also learnt alot from: VCDhelp.com
If your budget is low or are only capturing small home movies and want to add titles or photographs I think this is a good buy. There are better products out their but you have to pay the price for them. If your new to capturing like I was then take the time out first to read up on compression, splitting AVI's & Codecs etc, its well worth the time.
It also worked on my WinXP no problems whatsoever.
