I love this. If I was a piece of metal and wires I’d marry it.
I put my DVD’s and video and even youtube on my iPhone, plug these cables in and it plays directly on my television set. It has worked on every TV I have tried it on except a DLP rear projection TV. And thats only when plugging into the tv directly. It works but its just black and white, dunno why that happens. Other than that, everything else on any other TV works great. Maybe someone might know why that actually happens but I sure don’t.
I bought the Easy Cap USB adapter to convert my old VHS videos to DVD. It was somewhat of a hoop dream because I got it, finally figured out how to work it, then realized I was too lazy to bother recording all my VHS videos
But if you aren’t lazy like me, here’s a little bit of information that I learned that may help you with yours:
The drivers cause a few problems in Windows XP. I am a mac os x leopard owner.
There is a DC60 version which works in Windows and a newer DC60+ that has software for a mac. I bought this not knowing there was a mac version but got this to work on bootcamp. This is a DC60.
You need to compress video using DIVX Codex 6.8 on 1st pass. Also, the included software DOESNT work, but amCap v9.2 is free and works great. So you should probably download this and just give up with the crap CD they give you.
I would get this if you are savvy on downloading drivers and want to save 20 bucks. amCap v9.2 is free software and takes some trial and error to get things working. At first I thought I’d cry and be so frustrated trying to figure out how to get things to work in windows again after using a mac for so long, but it wasn’t overly difficult. I also thought I’d give a little demonstation, I’ve been told I have sexy hands. So enjoy.
I was pretty choaked that after buying my Olympus Stylus 850sw underwater camera that I would have to buy a special almost extinct XD memory card in order to use the panorama function. So I bought a rip off instead.
Basically the camera is programmed to take panorama shots ONLY if you have the olympus brand memory card, and this card worked, so it must be Olympus. Right?
Well who knows, it works and that’s all that mattered to me really. I did buy another memory card, see below, as the XD cards really only get up to 2GB which seems to be enough for now but you never know. I’ve included one of my videos of what this thing looks like, it actually comes with a pretty cool case for it inside as well.
