Studio MovieBox DV 9 is an analog to digital video converter the unit uses firewire connection rather then usb, the firewire is faster then usb and is also not found on every computer, usb is standard on most pc's but firewire is available if you get a external pci firewire card, usually with usb ports,
A few requirements for your system is to have a cd that is capable of burning this can be a dvd drive or a cdr drive, but the unit is not much good to you if you cannot burn the videos files after conversion. if your drive is not a burner it's cheap and easy to resolve by getting an internal dvd drive with dvd +r or rw. rw stands for re writable.
their are several devices that can be connected to the box, example a video camera, or a vcr, maybe you want your files from your portable media player mp4 or similar device. you can use this unit to edit the files, example. you make a home movie and add advanced image processing that is done by this box, the Studio MovieBox DV 9 will actually do the advanced processing rather then slowing down your computer. this unit is very good to make movies and edit video's even photos and slide shows, several other options are available with it. think of this unit as a capture card, with a capture card you would install a card into your computer. the card will take video input signals from a camera for example or a dvr box, and process the information with your computers aid. this unit dose it;s own image processing with on board micro processing. this frees up the computer and allows it to handle the advanced work of rendering imaging and video editing ;). it is very powerful unit. good luck with it.
