At the time I bought it, it worked pretty well for my needs to back up old vhs tapes. (I even capture VHS audio through the sound card too, and bypass the capture device.) Thanks. You don't need the Dazzle, or any capture device, for this. Will do, thank you very much !Īlso if you're capturing audio from older analog formats such as audio cassettes, your on-board sound card should be fine at 48K/16 bit/stereo with an app like Audacity to capture. Capture devices are usually found under 'Sound Video and Game Controllers'.

Once the install completes reboot your PC and verify that the Dazzle installed correctly by looking for the device in Device Manager with the Dazzle plugged in. Save these changes and double-click the installer to begin the install. Check the box which says 'Run this program as administrator' at the bottom. Click the box that says 'Run this program in Compatibility mode for.' and also select Windows 7 from the drop down menu. Right click on it and select 'Properties'. (I even capture VHS audio through the sound card too, and bypass the capture device.)

(But I don't recommend you use the packaged apps.)Īlso if you're capturing audio from older analog formats such as audio cassettes, your on-board sound card should be fine at 48K/16 bit/stereo with an app like Audacity to capture. All high quality, and reliable, and work within many formats and applications. Look into (from the site of the same name), Hauppauge USB-Live2 and StarTech SVID2USB2. For only a small amount of money, likely less than 20% what you paid for the (vastly overpriced) Dazzle then, you can get yourself a very nice USB capture stick and save yourself a lot of headaches. Yeah, you likely spent love and money on it, but just write it off for your sanity's sake today. I'm curious to see if Usually_quiet's advice will work.īut I say to do yourself a favor and forget the Dazzle. I can bet that your Dazzle product won't work with, for example, VirtualDub. They will only 'work' (notice the quotes) under their own proprietary environment, so without that CD, which is already eons old, you're in a high probability out-of-luck situation.

And typically their products were also horrible too.Īs well, many Dazzle products were also notoriously unpopular due to the fact that they were not portable to other software. I'll just give you different advice.ĭazzle support has been horrible ten years ago, and likely will not be any better with a product that's aged 10 years since, and due to the fact that they've been bought out and goodness-knows-what since.

I personally won't even bother to help you with the Dazzle.

#Dazzle dc100 capture device driver#

If so download the 64-bit driver installer for the DVC100, DVC101, or DVC103

Pinnacle's driver downloads are here: You probably have Windows 8.1 64-bit.

#Dazzle dc100 capture device drivers#

If Windows 8.1 doesn't install any drivers when you plug in the Dazzle capture device, you will have to install them manually. If you can't get compatible drivers installed, you might as well toss the Dazzle and buy something else. As I recall, it was not difficult to use.You need to install drivers that work for Windows 8.1 before moving on to finding software. I tried it a couple of years ago with a my USB capture device (not a Dazzle), and it did work. Did you try Magix Video Easy HD yet? It has a free trial and appears to work with a lot of different capture devices.

#Dazzle dc100 capture device software#

Pinnacle have software like Pinnacle Studio but no trial so I can't download to see if it works before I buy it. Is that any free capture program that can find the hardware and save the file on the local disk? I have try some software from this software section but I can't get it to work, most of the time it can't find Dazzle or when I find one that can find it it crash or just recording the video and not the sound because it can only find the video signal. It only support up to 120 min because it want to burn it on a DVD. Have a Pinnacle Dazzle DVD Recorder DVC 101 that I capture my VHS to the computer and it works fine with the Pinnacle Instant DVD Recorder software.īut it is one thing I do not like and it is a nice very basic software so you easy can make a DVD disc or save it on the local harddrive.īut you can't recording 4 hour VHS cassette to the harddrive and edit that after.
