Mark,

We've been using the ADVC 100 for quite sometime.
It works well for what I do - I've used it to connect VCRs and DVD players to a
PC.
I found that it is also helpful at times to have a Sima GoDVD connected to the
Canopus in order to copy short segments of certain DVDs.


Thank you,

John

Dear LLTI-listers,

Does anyone have any direct experience with Canopus video conversion products?

We are considering purchasing the ADVC110 as the only video conversion device
that we would own in our Language Learning Center.

We are looking for something that will be Mac-PC cross-platform compatible and a
desktop unit (not a card) so that it is portable.

The Canopus ADVC110 has gotten good reviews (at least the ones I've seen), but
we are also wondering if the ADVC300 (with its much heftier price tag) is worth
the extra money, or whether the added features go beyond what we would need to
do basic good-quality analog-digital conversion.

ADVC110 <http://www.canopus.us/US/products/ADVC110/pm_advc110.asp>
ADVC300 <http://www.canopus.us/US/products/ADVC300/pm_advc300.asp>

Anyone with experience using Canopus, please weigh in.

Thanks.

Mark Lauersdorf
