I am really tired of the same "experts" i.e. Fucilives, Lord Smurf, et al who seem to have an unreasoning hatred of this product. as they come up with the same ridiculous negative comments, even though they have never used it. Take it from someone who has actually used it, it works with superior results and it doesn't require constant driver updates, a tbc, or other such extras.

AMEN! You took the words right out of my mouth!

My ADVC-100 is S/N 764975, but no complaints. I have an old Macrovision eliminator that works fine, though I only have a couple of VHS Macrovision tapes, so not really an issue.

vhelp has some good info. I remember when the 'excess red' problem was revealed. And there was a fix for it. Never really needed it anyway. Most of my DV conversion from VHS tapes needed color correction and filtering anyway, so no problem.

For me, the video/audio sync lock is the most important feature and should be on all similar units. Too bad it's not on capture cards and we'd have a lot less 'sync problem' posts.
