    Roxio Easy VHS to DVD 3 Plus Video Converter for PC

    • The software is adequate for capturing the video, but I use a video editor from a different vendor to edit and burn the captured videos to DVD's.
    • However, a camera store will charge $30 per tape so this software is definitely a bargain.
    • and I will NOT be recommending this product to my friends and family, which is a shame because the hardware portion of this product worked out great, but as the title says, it's let down by poor software implementation and support.
    • The software is horrible.
    • Software is crap
    • My first system would not run the software due to Roxio causing a runtime error
    • I bought the product a few weeks ago and still have problems with the screen size but unfortunately to solve the problem I would probably have to pay for customer support which is not proper.the software works well on normal screen size.
    • Excellent both hardware and software.
    • The software could be better but works and gets the job done.
    • The software likes to stop recording videos without reason sometimes, even when the tape is playing perfectly
    • Roxio used to be "the place" for best burning software, and Corel was that solid, Ottawa-based company that produced a kick-butt product.
    • The software is easy to use, the connection cable is solid and creates good connections between your USB and VHS
    • After setting appropriate split points, the software reported "Your project completed successfully", but every attempt to play either of the DVDs in in a DVD player failed with the message "Incorrect disk"
    • If you are looking to make DVDs find a better software.
    • There are no settings in the software that allow you to force the software to burn DVDs in the U.S. format (NTSC)
    • Great software package.. everything you need to copy VHS tapes over digital files, copy to DVD, PC, etc
    • Look at the 2012 reviews for the top 2 software and hardware reviews, i now own one of each (yes, expensive but donate my time to other handicapped veterans
    • I will never buy another product from this company (please note - they also own Pinnacle) and spend as much time as I can letting everyone know how disappointing this software was as well as the support
    • All of the pieces I needed to hook up VCR from laptop were included.4/5 stars because the software is a touch clunky but for the price, well worth it.
    • However, in this case the software is absolutely useless without the hardware that attaches to the computer and the VHS VCR
    • I tried using the software, however, when I plugged in the USB device, I got a Windows message indicating the software had stopped working and that it was closing the program.
    • The software works most of the time, the software has crashed twice and there are times where the video is tearing on the record preview screen even though the source video is fine.
    • Shipped fast and price OK, however the software and device themselves are not as good as they are portrayed (by the manufacturer) compared with other products within same range of price
    • Also worth mentioning, the software failed during startup about 50% of the time but then opened fine when shut down and restarted.
    • Easy software install and Windows 10 patch download, everything works!
    • This software is so unstable I can't even get one video to record all the way through
    • Fantastic, effortless software.
    • The software is very user friendly
    • The software is user friendly

    • This software just would not work for me
    • Upgraded the provided software through its software update interface
    • But just going off of what the install nightmare was I would never use this software again, nor would I recommend it to anybody else.
    • Unfortunately the old software that came with my camera was incompatible with Windows 7.If you are looking to transfer video from your old VHS or tape media archives this is the product to do it quick and simple.
    • This is just bad software.
    • I was now getting an error screen that said the software was unable to detect to recordable CD in my burner
    • The software is pretty basic with little instruction, but it worked well enough for what I wanted to do.
    • The software generated memory errors
    • I updated the software and the drivers for my Windows 10 computer and it still didn't work
    • great tool, wish software was a little better
    • The software worked, but the frame rate was so slow, that the videos came out too jerky to overlook
    • It gave almost no instructions and requires more software to burn to DVD.
    • By far the worst software I have ever owned
    • The hardware's easy enough to hook up, but the software could use some work
    • Also worth mentioning, the software failed during startup about 50% of the time but then opened fine when shut down and restarted.

    • This software DOES NOT WORK.
    • I can't download the software because it's not compatible with Windows 10
    • So, the device appears to be fine, but could use better software
    • 1) software is NOT easy to use, and I am experienced in the computer business2) printed instruction book did not match anything on my screen; "knowledge" base had no answers3) customer service really sucked, including their "chat" service that was not a service at all.4
    • There is a workaround that can be used to trick the software into burning DVDs in the correct format for U.S. players, but it involves jumping through a few additional hoops that could have been avoided if the software had been better designed
    • Bottom line, software is bad!
    • This wasn't the easiest software to use
    • Nevertheless, this software has worked for me except for one confusing glitch, and I think my experience may explain why there is such a wide variation in the evaluations here
    • The hardware is well made and the software is very easy to use.
    • The software here isn't worth Anything

    • Now that has been said, I use to own a small consulting firm where we we get free software to test, so it's not like we are new to this business
    • A product key is used to protect software from being pirated and copied
    • Corel has a history of acquiring good software publishers and then running their product's into the ground (think of Paint Shop Pro by JASC, WinDVD, WordPerfect, WinZip)-this product is no exception
    • the wrong software and instruction booklet were mistakenly put in the box - but on the face of it, you appear to be nothing but a bunch of deceitful, misleading, scammers
    • The software is intuitive.
    • I will not fault the software for this.
    • The software works well when capturing a video on to the computer.
    • Software was really easy to use
    • Their software has a major defect and they do not even acknowledge it

    • The software makes that process easy.
    • Nice software, ran on Win 10.
    • Buggy software that often would not allow me to record a VHS tape
    • Software is VERY limited
    • Windows is like that' but there are VERY, VERY few modern software packages that cause such troubles for XP.However the function and user interface are simple enough that you can blunder your way through.
    • The software installed no problem, the hookups were straightforward
    • This software is junk!
    • I do prefer AVGO for compression into H.264, but as video capture software this works very good.
    • Instructions not clear software not 100%
    • The software to edit is easy and quick
    • The software doesn't work with or without the patch and you can't return software that's been opened.

    • As for using this product, I couldn't get the S-Video connection to work, but I don't know if that is the fault of Roxio or my VCR

    • I wanted this device to add moving video to my Windows Movie Maker projects, as well as saving my old VHS tapes to DVR
    • My Son recommended this to me as he has one himself.
    • Product works as far as it goes but will not allow the creation of individual chapters or menu items if only one video is recorded
    • Well, it arrived in the time it said it would, worked exactly as it was supposed to.
    • Wasted several of our dual layer dvd+r's when it froze after writing a few percent to the dvd.
