  Good Points: IF the capture was worth keeping, the features of this system look awesome for editing. I'm going to hate throwing that away!

  
  

  Bad Points: The capture is not worth keeping for me. In my opinion the capture is grainy, washed out and incorrect colors. Tech support is well, not very supportive. The most user antagonistic device I've ever used!

  
  

  General comments: Software was hard to load, had to consult with Pinnacle's site many times to get it to load. After loading, I have never been able to get a good/accurate capture of the source video. I spent chat after chat performing suggestion after suggestion, wasting blank DVD's after blank DVD's with not success. Video looks good/accurate in the "capture window's" preview box but then does not capture what is was showing. I've spent more than 100 hours trying to get this working and maybe 22 discs.... and two hours of long distance calling and still I am NO closer to having a good quality capture. Last night, I was told I had to reinstall everything because I "should have" a selection that says "VCR input" in the capture set up. In spite of the Pinnacle site stating that only 3 devices have this option (mine isn't one of them) the tech guy insisted that I reinstall again. I did. Guess what? As far as I am aware HE was WRONG. In my opinion didn't have a clue as to what systems of Pinnacle's have what options. I'm so over this Studio Plus. That's why I am here researching my next capture device. This process with Pinnacle could not be worse. I have never used a more user antagonistic piece of computer hardware/software in my life!

  The Pinnacle Studio Plus 700-PCI video capture software box comes with 3 discs. I couldn't get it to install for the life of me. So after some Googling I found out that to overcome that problem you need to create a folder on your desktop called Studio, then copy the contents of Disc one into that folder. Then reboot and go into safe mode with networking. You do this by continually pressing the F8 (key) until you get to the safe mode menu. Once you are in Windows (safe mode) then open up the Stud ...
