Canopus ADVC300 Advanced Digital Video Converter

Strengths: does what it's supposed to do

Weakness: very little documentation

This is a very straightforward device, though the settings of the dipswitches recall the bad old days of modems and other long-forgotten peripheral tediums. For anyone with less than perfect eyesight, or large fingers, determining whether and where the switches have been moved can be quite challenging. But with a little trial and error, the result is satisfying.

Canopus ADVC-300

Strengths: Well rounded input/output connectors; Easy to move around from pc-to-pc or pc to laptop.

Weakness: Outdated pin-based configuration settings; more like setting up interupt on a 1990 era modem; lack of support for "Audio only" capture.

The Canopus ADVC 300 is a greate overall product for converting video from digital to analog or the other way around.
The provision of 3 different connector types takes the guess work out the way. That means 3 possible options to connect your device with; component, composit, or FireWire.
