Dazzle

[Robbie]

Hey everyone,

So I bought myself an EasyCap off eBay but it's the DC60 and not the DC60+, so it can't record it 60hz. So thats gone in my drawer (I've looked at every possible video and tutorial on YouTube).

So I was looking to buy a Dazzle, I know Argos used to sell it but I can't see it on their website. Do any other high-street shops sell it or something like it? I don't wanna wait for it if I order it off the net, I'd rather go and pick it up from a shop.

Thanks
(+rep for helps.)

You can buy a dazzle for £50 out of Maplins. Buy the cheapest one and then follow this tutorial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FRL6LL0r74) The cheapest dazzle only records in black&white but with that tutorial you can somehow make it record in colour. I'd advise trying it with EasyCap first though to make sure it definatly doesnt work.

Didn't work for me, Paul but thanks anyway. I'd rep you but I need to spread :'(

Download AMCAP, and just record using easycap in 50hz, and it should be black and white ? Then use amcap to make it colour

You can't use AMCAP to make it colour.

The first time I bought a Dazzle it came from PC World.

I ordered one off eBay earlier, it's the 50hz version but I'll just follow one of the many YouTube tuts on getting it in colour.

Thanks all.

Is that the red one? Either it can't record the latest games or can't record in colour :P

[Robbie]

I dunno but it was only £10 and you can get it in colour with a bit of messing around in Movie Maker and AMCAP (loads of tuts on YouTube), whereas on the EasyCap you can't.

Lol if that don't work lemme know I'm going to put a listing up for my Dazzle and splitters I reckon, probably make it go for £45 :P

It does make it from black and white, you change it from NTSC something to SECAM B and voila
