Plextor Europe has announced a new digital video convertor, the PX-AV200U. Affordably priced and easy to use, the PX-AV200U will take your analog video signals and covert them to MPEG 2/4.

Transfer analogue footage to DVD easily and cost-effectively - from VHS tapes and footage captured on an analogue camcorder. Plextor's new ConvertX PX-AV200U is a digital video converter with the emphasis on ease of use.

Plextor's ConvertX preserves old and treasured analogue footage by digitising it for posterity. Everything is included to get consumers up and running immediately - simply plug it into a PC via USB, attach the analogue source and let the powerful software do the hard work. It enables editing of digital files, creating Hollywood-style movies including professional transitions and titles, and sharing of CDs, video CDs and DVDs with family and friends.
No word on price yet. However, the PX-AV200U is scheduled to ship in May 2007. More information is available on Plextor's website.
