    Worked great, indespensible for getting older media into a digitals format.
  

*by K***A on Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2014*

H E L L O  A G A I N  A M A Z O N  F A N S  E V E R Y W H E R E!!!I have a half of gazillion video tapes around here in various formats from VHS, 8, Hi-8, Digital-8, MiniDV ...its crazy.A couple of my newer cameras have the 1394 'Firewire' connection, as does my Lenovo T420 Laptop, so connecting them to the computer and digitizing the videos isn't hard at all; the trouble was with the older formats.Researching a simple yet effective means to do so was a quite the task; it seems for every good review I would read of the devices that plugged into your computer via USB was another one said the device sucked; basically it seemed to be a crap shoot.It was while I was trouble shooting a problem I was having getting media from my Panasonic Mini DV camcorder onto the computer (turned out to be a bad cable) that I stumbled across a name I had not heard before yet seemed to be very popular among its devotee's "Canopus" by Grass Valley. It seems so obscure among the general consumer that if you are reading this review I am guessing you either know or discovered this yourself.The most common model I found people using was the ADVC-110. Doing a eBay search I found quite a number of them being offered; all used, many just the little converter box without any cables,  literature or anything else yet still commanding prices of $100 or more; that tells you something.And yes, where as you can get pretty much any other consumer grade video converter device for around $60 or less you will more than likely spend more for these; because they are so reliable.This model, the ADVC-100 is an earlier model with a separate power supply; the 110 gets its power from the Firewire connection and has an option for a power supply. This model also has an extra Audio connection the 110 apparently lacks.This particular one I bought was lightly used in box, came with probably everything that it originally shipped with all nicely tucked and packed in the original box.NOTES:  - There are little switches on the bottom of the device; it will work for NTSC or PAL - pay particular attention to which of the NTSC selections you choose; there are two. I had an issue when I first tried using it and discovered that the wrong NTSC switch was activated.  - Whether you get the ADVC-100, ADVC-110, or the big brother ADVC-300 with its special extra magic to enhance your videos (around $300 on eBay) YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE A FIREWIRE IEEE-1394 CONNECTION ON YOUR COMPUTER. This is not a USB device. The older USB 2.0 standard is much slower than Firewire; which is probably why people have less trouble with dropouts when using this device. The only time I have had drop outs was because of a damaged tape or a burp in the camcorder.  - If you are using a PC desktop computer you often can just add a Firewire card to your computer; PC laptops can be a bit more tricky, but if you have an enterprise class computer, made for businesses, and it has a PCMCIA card slot, you can find Firewire adapters here on Amazon that will fit in there and then use that.  - Also know that just because you are taking your old analog videos and putting them into a digital format you can not expect them to now be high definition; they can only be as good as the original source material; and their imperfections can really show up on a high definition screen.Now that I have been getting these old tapes onto my computer I am having fun editing them; I am using Sony Movie Studio Platinum Suite 12 which has a little learning curve but is not difficult to use and has a huge fan base with a ton of support videos on the internet. As of this writing Version 13 is now out and you can get V12 for a steal.Have a Magical Day!
