Review on Revolutionize Your Video Experience with ADS Tech USB Instant Video CD by Jeff Sorensen

As a temporary measure, I bought an ADS USB INSTANT VIDEO CD. I wanted to keep my old videos on a more permanent medium like tape, but I can't afford to upgrade to a Pentium 4 machine with a DVD burner. I have a 3 year old Compaq Presario with Windows 98SE, an AMD K6-2 500 processor, 256MB RAM (8MB for video), a 6GB hard drive and an HP 12x CD burner. I have successfully installed the USB drivers for the input device and the software Ulead Video Studio 6.0 SE. Although I've been able to create a couple of VCDs so far, I would recommend a more powerful computer with a discrete graphics card. .I was also pleasantly surprised to find out that Video CDs could be played in my Magnavox MDV435 DVD player, which had instructions that Video CDs would not play on it. remove as many unnecessary files and programs as possible to free up space on your hard drive. Run a hard drive scan and defragmentation to optimize your hard drive's performance. Before using Ulead Video Studio, close all running programs except Explorer and Systray to minimize CPU usage. In summary, ADS USB Instant VideoCD does exactly what it's supposed to do, but your computer will be the most important factor in its success. Specifications and your patience in learning Ulead software.
