I read a good article on the LAFCPUG site about DVDxDV and I decided to give it a try. The converted file works perfectly in my FCP 7 timeline. It's Exactly what I needed. Whatever it lacks in look and design, it makes up for with excellent customer service. I had several questions that I emailed and they got back to me immediately. They asked me to give them a review on this site and I became a member just so I could do that. Keep up the great work.

I contacted their support team at dvdxdv@support.com. I got a reply within seconds of sending the email. Amazing! Very good product by the way.

That should have been support@dvdxdv.com not dvdxdv@support.com!

Nothing compares to the quality and ease of use. I couldn't stand those spamware Chinese DVD programs that don't work and make your video look terrible, such as, Wondershare, Leawoo, iSkySoft, etc. This is the only program that I use.

There are better free tools out there. This is a rather poor app.

26cab40 you must be another troll. How you can even compare DVDxDV to handbrake?

DVDxDV has helped me recover hundreds of videos from damaged DVDs and handbrake has done nothing but choked on them.

This tool works as advertised. Ignore the mental midgets trolling in this tools reviews. They must be shills working for the Asian backed spamming video conversion companies like Aimersoft, iSkysoft, Any-Video-Converter, Wondershare, Xillisoft and hundreds of other names!

Poor

Compared to Handbrake, this is badly written garbage.
Now with added shill reviews.

I'm a comedian and am always ripping bits from my shows off DVD's for youtube, my website and other promotional places.... this is the best software out there for that. Also, last week my hard drive crashed and so I needed to reload their program on my computer. I couldn't find a way to reload it without buying it again. I'm on tour today in California and emailed them asking if there was a way to get it without buying it again. It was 8:15AM on Sunday morning so I knew I wouldn't get a response but about 10 minutes later I got an email telling me how to do it. Absolutely amazing customer service backing up an all ready great product!

You are indeed a comedian, and just like most of the other users who have posted a 4- or 5-star review of this product, it is the only post you've ever made on MacUpdate. Coincidence? I doubt it. Moreover, further down the list is a user called Frank Mathers, who has clearly responded as the developer _and_ posted a 5-star review. MU staff, are you paying attention?

Barnyb replied on 08 Dec 2010

So what does that make you Robotank a troll? I own this software and love it. Are you going to B.S me how it sucks when I know for a fact it's a tool with a niche market and works as advertised. Handbrake may have some uses but it sure as hell doesn't recover lost videos because it chokes on damaged DVDs.

Funny I happened to notice this now when the oriental posts were so long ago. Barnyb, you seem to lack basic reading comprehension skills. My post says nothing at all about the quality of this app, nor about HandBrake in comparison to it. I was suggesting that some of the reviews posted for DVDxDV appeared to be dishonest. You have the right to think I'm a troll for that, but developers posting reviews of their own products, either with their own accounts or with junk accounts created to write a single review, is a dishonest practice prohibited by MacUpdate rules. If you think I'm wrong about that, present your arguments. On the other hand, if you're not capable of understanding and responding to what I actually write, perhaps you shouldn't bother saying anything.

BTW, that should say "original," not "oriental." Lion spell correction at work, I guess.

Have been using DVDxDV for two years now, version 1.09 on a pair of MacG5s; my experience is that if you have a DVD that is about 3GB full or less, it works fine. The app takes a long time to load the DVD. But if you have a 4GB, the problems abound! Additionally, if you have made your DVD from a videotape with some control track that is not continuous, the app fails on a number of fronts. For the past couple of days I've been trying to make a .mov file from one of four tracks on a DVD that I made from a VHS tape. The app does not recognize much of the track; just the last 20%. I've given up on DVDxDV! If only I could recover my lost time in past couple days!

I have been using DVDxDV for over a year now and I could not easily do my job without this tool. I am a Technology Specialist in a K-8 school and help produce a Kid's TV News Show at a local cable TV station.

We shoot the stories at school in .mov format using video cameras and iMovie on Macs and go to the studio to do the anchor shoots. We record on VCR at the studio and it is transferred to DVD format.

I use DVDxDV to easily convert the studio DVD to a .mov format so I can do my final merging and editing in iMove. I then burn to DVD for use at the studio for our final broadcasting.

I have tried a couple other solutions but this is the easiest software to use and it produces great results.

The support team is also awesome. I had to replace a hard drive on my Mac and I did not have the license key to activate the product for a critical weekend production. I emailed them and had the key back in less than five minutes.

I would recommend this product highly.

Easy to use and works very well. It's a great piece of the puzzle for moving VHS home movies to digital.

I use a Sony DVD recorder to dub VHS to DVD and then import the DVD video to the Mac with DVDxDV. There is some overscan from the VHS analog, but that can be cropped with iMovie.
