MP10 vs. Dazzle Can't Post
Hi all:
My understanding is that the MP10 and the Dazzle are nearly the same product. I am looking to put videos from my digital JVC camcorder on my website. Both of them output to the same res, 350 x 240, from what I understand. Has anyone compared these two products? I would be interested to know what others think of them.
Thanks in advance!
Mike

Re: MP10 Can't Post
Mike,
I can't comment on the Dazzle but I can comment on the MP10. I've had it for 2-3 weeks and I pretty impressed with it for a variety of reasons. It's easy to use and has a lot of nice features at an extremely low price. I especially like the audio editing/music creation feature.
I have not put any video on a web site but I have created a few small videos without a hitch. My only complaint is it captures at 356x240? and outputs the same. I think that's supposed to be VHS quality but a finished movie looks like a movie made in the seventies. You also need lots of mem on your computer for capturing and storing clips/projects. I've got 8 GIG and plenty of room.
However, for your purposes you might not want to have higher resolution when posting to the web. Higher res means larger file size and significantly longer download times.
Depending on your desired output res this product may work well for you. It's a snap to get it up and running too. Nothing is installed internally.
