Whats the difference?
According to the product adds, the "Dazzle Hollywood DV-Bridge" uses "DV format" with a analog hub connecting per firewire port.
Dazzle Dig.Vid.Creator2 add bosts "mpeg1,2and 4" and connects the hub to PCI card.
The All-in-Wonder 8500, looks slick for the addition of a T.V tuner with Dvcr and so on, with a sticker price of 350 bucks is less than either Dazzle product combined with the purchase of a GF3ti200 card.
Wow, which one to get? Dazzle says the hollywood card converts video to "DV format". I thought DV format was mpeg2??? If it isn't, wouldn't I be better off buying the Dazzle DVC2 unit with multiple formats being available? Or skip both for the AIW 8500?
Does anyone have any experience with these Dazzle products? I was going to get the AIW 8500 but looks like alot of sour grapes are present on these pages. (ie. trouble connecing to an Audigy card, support, ...?)
I'm a casual gamer so I was thinking of either of these options, I would welcome any input from those of you with experience in video. THANK YOU
Options are.....
1. Aiw 8500 now for new system.
2. GF3ti200 now with Dazzle DVC2 + Dvd burner later.
(and use the old Haffpage t.v. card I have)
3. GF3ti200 now with Dazzle Hollywood + Dvd burner later.
(again, keep the old t.v. tuner card)
I've looked at alot of these posts and am even more confused than ever. I'm putting a new system together and want the capasity to (when DVD burner prices drop) convert my analog 8mm tapes to DVD, nothing more than that.
I await your input O' masters of time and space.
