notbad, not amazing
We're using it to capture old home VHS movies and things are pretty good. The FREE software that comes with it (that everyone is complaining about) is pretty good for free. Also, the comments about lagging and whatnot, need to be weighed against the computer, not the adapter.

Peice of CRAP!!!
This is a piece of CRAP. It crashes window, you can't move the TV window to a 2nd monitor. ADS support line states that they will call you back within 24 hours. What a joke. It's been a week since i left 6 messages and an email to their support and have gotten no response. I do not recommend this product to anyone.

Any USB tv tuner/recorder is going to be laggish because its USB. USB is not meant to consistantly stream video, so you will get unmatched video/audio and glitches when capturing. Best bet is to go with PCI capture card.

Value Good for the money but product is not worth the money. Got it installed to a 3.2 GHz machine voice does not match and video playback is slow and jagged that is if your able to actually get a video feed. NOT RECOMMENDED

I got this hoping to watch TV on my computer and i have yet to get it to run right. The thing blue screens all the time and when it does run the voices never match the lips when they talk. Don't waste your money.
