Dazzle on Windows

[minibois]

 

Hey, I was wondering if anyone got a Dazzle (capture card) to work on a Windows 7 PC?
Or would I need to use a Windows XP/Vista VM to use it?

 

My dad wants to use it to get his VHS tapes to digital files.

If it works with Vista then you could use a 32-bit version of Windows 7 (most likely). But I doubt you/your dad use 32-bit Windows. I think it will just be easier to use a VM or test it on Windows 7?!

 

EDIT

 

Here it says it is Windows 7 compatible: http://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/uk/products/dazzle/dvd-recorder-hd/

 

Even Windows 8?!!!

Mine always worked on Win7 not sure if I was using 32 or 64 bit.

Hmm, that should work.. But not sure what to download from there, or should it work with no download?

Did you have to download some program to make it work or not?

Yes the drivers and capture software that you need but I used Sony vegas for that.

As long as you have the driver installed you can use almost any capture software.

@Minibois I think you might need Pinnacle Studios software (the guys who made it). However, this video boasts that you can do it without: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7reoGBO-IPY

 

But I think what @lani100 said you could just do that and use Sony Vegas for it, and if you don't have it you could "totally buy it" or just use a trial.
