Problems Uploading to YouTube?

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: I WANT TO BE ABLE TO UPLOAD TO YOUTUBE, until I learn how to do that, I cannot recommend this product.
Review: Overall I liked many aspects of the Plextor CovertX PX-TV402U for the Mac, however, however, the software that is bundled with Plextor is made by elgato and seems to not recognized the importance of bigger file sizes for short programs.

Better products out there, this is just okay

Date of Review:  Jul 2, 2008
Review: The video capture is good and it is easy to use. This part of my review pertains to Windows XP and the device:

The bundled software is adequate for capturing video, which includes WinDVD Creator 2 (no longer supported by Corel) and Ulead...

ConvertX proved absolutely worthless for tape copy

Date of Review:  Jun 1, 2004
Review: After reading the PC Magazine review and because of my previous experience with Plextor's otherwise excellent products, I bought a ConvertX PX-M402U. The article stated this was an excellent way to convert analog tapes to DVD. That was my only...

Plextor PX-M402U Big Disappointment

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: Great concept but wait until Plextor gets the hardware right and there is more than one program that supports its output.
Review: I found the PX-M402U to be a major disappointment. An attractive case and easy connections do not make up for a faulty product. Major problems with video/audio synchronization. Attempting to convert a VHS tape left the audio an entire scene behind...

Good machine, OK software

Date of Review:  May 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: for a few transfers, consider paying the $20 per tape for someone else to do it..otherwise i think this is a good video capture device
Review: I purchased the M402U after returning an AV100U..the AV100 had some horrible buzzing sound on everything I tried to record...apparently it's internal conversion scheme was more than my processor could handle (which surprised me since it's a new...

Works fine with Vista

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2007
Review: Someone else here says the Plextor PX-M402U does not work with Vista. Well, I beg to differ. As soon as I plugged my Plextor into my Vista Ultimate box, Windows automatically downloaded the correct device driver (v2.3.0.3). I then installed the...

Fantastic Customer Service

Date of Review:  Aug 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: The ease of us is amazing. Just plug up and go. Tech support is outstanding.
Review: I received my Plextor PX-M402U yesterday. After hooking everything up the device would not work. Everything pointed to the device drivers not being installed properly.

This morning I called Tech Support. I was on hold for only about 5...

The only piece of software that will let me capture anything from this piece of ..."hardware" is Plextor's own Plextools Pro.

high quality

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2004
Review: The analogue to digital conversion is very nice. The hardware level conversion makes matters simple enough to where all one's computer must do is store the data stream from the device onto a hard drive. The multiple formats you can have the device...
