Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sabrent TV-USB20 USB 2.0 TV Tuner/Video Capture Box with Remote Control

Customer Review: It's ... OK ...
Summary: 3 Stars

I used this a lot on my XP based DELL Inspiron 640m laptop. I was able to record sound and video of old VHS-C tapes, convert them to video files, and upload them to Google Video. The quality was not fantastic, but neither was that of the original source tapes that were twenty years old.

Now I have a Vista based DELL Vostro 200 (desktop) and I can get the video and take screen shots and such, but no matter what I do--NO AUDIO! Very unhappy. I'll update this review if I can get it to work, with details on how.
