I have bought Dream Capture from the website of the developer after doing a trial. That went very well indeed. I used my Sony DVCAM camera and I made recordings of about a couple of minutes and the colors really looked good. Kudos for that to the developer.
I wanted to use it for prerecorded home movie material that would only reside on our computers. Nothing fancy.
However after entering the code you receive having bought the program the trouble started. Recordings of severals seconds only and the saving screen dropping down willy nilly.
To my surprise I read here, that you should have a G5 processor! I am using an iMac with a G4. As far as I could see on the website of the developer there is nowhere any talk about the necessity to have a Mac with a G5 processor! This is not good!
If it had been on the website I would not have bought the program however good the program would function. Possibly because of the good results I would have asked support if a G4 would cause any problems.
I have written to the developer and I am waiting for an answer.
