does the software support Windows 7 and can it burn recordings to DVD's

Pretty sure it is compatible with Windows 7. As far as recording we can't seem to get a disc big enough to record on. Planning on trying a blu Ray disc and see if that works

Honestly, I don't know. There are drivers for XP on the disc that came with it, but I tried to install it on a Windows 7 laptop and couldn't get the laptop to record the song I was playing with the recorder.

I posted before this is not the ideal hardware to use with windows 7. It can be however run/used under win7 using compatibility mode. The link for the proper win7 drivers is listed in the q&a.; It is a very reliable and useful piece of hardware. Use it on a PC running xp and it is flawless. If this is intended for 24/7 security recording using it on ones main pc is not a very good idea as with any such similar hardware. The constant accessing of the HD to read/write the video data is enough wear for just a standalone.

it works like any usb cam. super simple. win 7 has the drivers already. 32 or 64 bit.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that as I have Windows 7. I do, however, love this DVR!! In my Sweet Adeline chorus it functions better than the Sony's or RCA's. I did extensive research and learned a lot by reading through hundreds of reviews. Hope that's helpful!

I have win 7. But with the software it should support Win 8. The box says Vista and Win 7.

If you want video recorded, you must install a disk drive internal to the unit. You cannot use the drive on a computer running Windows. The installation uses SATA cables just like a computer so nearly any SATA drive will work.

I use this product with win7 pro 64bit and with vidblaster software and it works very well... video only no sound....

I have yet to get the Audacity software to work as instructed with Windows 7. It will not let me designate "USB Audio Device" as the "recording device." Does not list it as an option.

No. I couldn't get the software to work with Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. It worked fine on Windows XP.

Yes, most all DVD burners also burn CD's. I haven't tried with W8 but if Lenovo hasn't updated the driver for the device I'm pretty sure Windows will be able to work with W7 drivers or at lease have a generic one that works.

I am not quite sure how to answer this question, so I will answer it as best as I can as related to this device.This device is able to install software to your computer via CD/DVD. There isn't any software to download to operate this device as it is plug and play on my Windows 7 machine. This device should also let you burn to disc as long as you have the software to do so.

Yes, the unit accepts most common recordable DVD media. You may record directly to DVD or dub from the HDD of previously recorded items.

I have burned with Windows DVD maker all types of home videos on Visa and Windows 7. I have combined my own music, Jpegs, and AVI video clips from my Canon Powershot camera. Yah, old school,but when my recent little used DVD died I was told it would be difficult to find one that would read my home videos. Well the Big box store said this one wouldn't do it, but it does and I'm going to buy another tomorrow. I tried it on an 1988 Panasonic and a Sony HD 40 Brava with excellent results. It even played VCR movies I copied in a VCR/DVD combo and played them too. I am really pleased with this purchase and bringing the Sansung back tomorrow.

Yes it works with Windows 7. It is just a hardware controller for DJ software so depending on what software you use it to control you can record your own mixes. It comes with a dumbed down version of virtual DJ which I don't believe gives you the option to record but if you can get your hands on the full version then you are golden.

I used it on Windows 7 Home Premium, and also on Windows 7 Professional and it worked flawlessly. I played a dv tape and recorded the avi file straight to the computer.

Hi Amy, Sorry, it does not burn DVDs. You can transfer/store data on it, and record and play-back only.
