Title: Pretty Bad Stuff - Software abysmal
Product review: Saw some reviews where folks go this to work, wish i was one of them. I can capture to a 1.6 gig MPEG file that is 30 minutes of video, but when i burn using sonic, it turns out to be a 5 minute dvd. Sonic decided to end the DVD at an apparent random spot! AND it takes 2 hours for the privilege of finding out that your DVD is a coaster. I'm not optimistic about the email support. It will probably be back at compusa before they reply. Sonic support web page wont even load!Running on XP sp2. Capture seems to work most of the time, though it will crash/hang for no apparent reason, requiring reboot, just getting it to DVD is the problem. The encoding is foreign to any 3rd party ive tried, like tmpgenc, so im stuck with sonic. I tried on my PC and my laptop with same result. Boxing this up to go back to COMPUSA tomorrow. I think 12 hours in front of my pc trying to make a single DVD is enough.
