Decent as a video to DVD MPEG2 converter

Date of Review:  May 6, 2004
The Bottom Line: It's a decent product to buy if you plan to buy a DVD recorder.
Review: I read the review by VicWang and share the disappointment for DivX users. This unit has a terrible problem with re-compression due to the crappy DVD Creator 2 software doing endless re-rendering every time. They promise to fix this, but users will...

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...

Not Vista-Compatible / No Plextor Tech Support

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2007
Review: Beware that Plextor's tech support does not respond and this product does NOT work with Windows Vista. Plextor did not respond to my requests for information to find out if they were planning to release Vista-compatible drivers/software.

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.

sooner rather than later will stop working

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2008
Review: Why does it work for some but not others?
Because there are serious driver incompatibilities with quicktime and divx and other codecs which can be automatically installed. The drivers for the hardware appear to me to be the major part of the...

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...

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...
