Diamond video capture vc500 amazon update#

Well, I just invested $40 in the Diamond VC500 One Touch Video Capture Device from Amazon, so I'll give an update as soon as I get it. So it is also possible that the version of VS SE distributed with the VC500 is the only version that will work with it.

Some hardware manufacturers tweak software like VS to work with their device, but they don't share the secret with the software maker. Just because it comes bundled with an SE (Special Edition) of Video Studio does not, however, guarantee it. It could be that the VC500 will work with VS11/11.5+, but that will indeed require someone who captures with it using VS11/11.5+ to confirm it.

I for instance use WinDV to capture from my DV cameras, and HDVSplit to capture my HDV, even though VS11/11.5+ can do both as well. Many of us here use various programs for different parts of the editing process. However, the bottom line, if later versions will not in fact work with it, then if you are not using Vista (which versions of VS earlier than VS10 will not work properly with), you could capture using the earlier version and open the captured files in VS11+ for editing. Hopefully, someone who actually has a Diamond device will respond more specifically.
