The company that makes "Snappy" has gone out of business and they're blowing them out. The normal price is $100, but you can get one for $7 while they last. It's a device that gets screen caps from video signals (vcr, tv, etc.). Here's the link:

I was figuring you need that software to make it work, and you would have to purchase it separately.

Apparently not. I haven't hooked mine up yet but I was just using someone elses. I should have mine connected soon. I'll verify it, but I've never seen a piece of hardware sold that didn't have free downloads of their software. After all, the software is useless without the hardware.

Since it's illegal to sell something that you can't use, I would think you could use it without that.

UPDATE: The Snapy module comes with Snappy 4.0 software. Apparently it just doesn't come with Adobe Photo Deluxe, which I don't want anyway. And for 7 bucks this thing is pretty kewl!

I am curious to the quality of the pictures from a camcorder. I had a similar product from a company called Dazzle. It boasted resolutions up to 1500 x 1200. What a crock! It couldn't produce pictures larger then wallet size that were not fuzzy or "blocky", at any stated resolution.

I paid $99 for that piece of cr*p. Maybe I'll do it again for $7.00.

Let me know what you think of the image quality, and at what resolution.

The f*cking link works fine. I just f*cking checked it. I haven't f*cking hooked this thing up yet because I'm so f*cking lazy but I'll let you know if it's any f*cking good once I do. O f*cking K? :)

Update: This thing works GREAT!

Got mine today.

It is superior in image quality to the Dazzle unit I had (and got rid of). However, the Dazzle had faster response time, and you could take multiple pictures without stopping the VCR.

But, this certainly is the better product of the two, and definitely worth the price!

Can't argue with seven bucks! Glad you like it. :)

Snappy works with Windows XP. You will have to use the "Program Compatibility" wizard, and select Windows 2000.

Then it works just fine.
