The Dazzle installation DVD was produced before Windows 8.1 was introduced, and the Pinnacle program will not open after installation in a Windows 8.1 system until you install a patch downloaded from the website named Patch_for_PSD_Win 8.1.exe. Because of the need for a patch, after installing the device drivers and the Pinnacle program from the DVD, you will receive a message that there was an error installing the program. Ignore the message, close the installation notification box, and restart the computer. The program will be installed on the computer, but it will not open. Install the patch, and the Pinnacle program should open and run normally.
After installing the patch, the Dazzle device and the Pinnacle program works as advertised. However, the Pinnacle program does not provide settings for choosing the codec or the quality of the captured video. There is one setting, and that is it. If this produces the quality of video you are happy with, you will love this system, because it is so easy to use. If not, you can use other programs (instead of Pinnacle) to choose the codec and quality of the video capture and to manage/monitor the capture of the video stream.
To be honest the 'newer' Dazzle video capturing devices are just re-distributed hardware and software from when they first hit the market.
The claims on the box and descriptions of this product are very miss leading. It will not improve the quality of any video being captured.
In case anyone is wondering if this device would be good for capturing retro video games using A/V or S-Video; It's not. The best settings do not help in the slightest to improve video quality and frame drop is a problem.
The software has some very nice features for transitioning scenes, sounds/SFX, and DVD menus.
However the software is from 2013.
I gave this product a 3 star because it made it possible for me to transfer my VHS tapes to DVD and even though the image quality remains the same it's nice to have them on media that isn't already 30+ years old.
Also. I feel the product is not worth the price listed ($40+S&H). $25 at best.

No pdf manual with the PinnacleStudio 23 software supplied but once managed to
access the support web site Pinnacle/Corel then able to obtain one.
Manual's for both PinnacleStudio 24 and PinnacleStudio 23 well written and
easy to follow once getting started.
