USB Instant DVD Simplifies DVD Video Creation and Authoring

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Here's something coming out that I wouldn't think would be legal. Here's a snip from this Yahoo.biz article:

With USB Instant DVD, users can quickly and easily archive and record their home movies in full resolution DVD-quality video, then author to DVD or CD discs and share them with family and friends.

Priced at less than $250 (US), the USB device enables even inexperienced users to easily import videos from any analog source such as VHS tapes, camcorders, DVD players, laser disks, or TVs to a computer. The captured video can be edited on the PC, authored and burned to a CD or DVD recordable disk that can be played on most PCs and set top DVD players. Instant DVD utilizes hardware-based MPEG-2 compression (the same format used in DVD movies) for smooth video at full 704 X 480 NTSC (704 X 576 PAL) resolution and stereo sound. Because the MPEG-2 encoding is done on the fly, render time is eliminated and the process can be done in a relatively short amount of time.


Pretty cool. Encoding in real time. I wouldn't mind using this to convert some of my old VHS stuff.

Looks very cool.
