If you are having problems with your grabbee appearing as a 2801 device or something similiar, this is what worked for me..
First, unplug your grabbee and uninstall all software related to it (jukebox, usb audio/video driver, etc)
Click here to go to the VideoHome website with the latest driver, download it (this will take some time as they seem to have slow servers) Install this driver and reboot. Now plug your Grabbee back in. This is strange but it worked for me: go to Device Manager (start, run, type 'devmgmt.msc' and hit enter) under Sound, video and game controllers find 2801 USB device (or something similiar) and right click on it. Choose properties and click on the Driver tab. Next click on update driver, then choose advanced on the wizard. Next click 'I will choose the driver to install' at this point you may have a choice of a USB 2801 device or a GrabbeeX+, choose GrabbeeX+ then click 'have disk'. Browse to where you downloaded the updated drivers and drill down to 'Manual driver' then '32 bit' (or 64 if you're on 64 bit windows I would guess!) and click OK. Click next and the new driver should now install. When this is finished close device manager and insert the CD that came with you grabbee and browse to the 'AP Software' folder and run Setup.exe, to install the video jukebox program. There is an updated version of this on the videohome website but it did not work at all for me. Once that is installed run the jukebox software and it should now be working!

Customer Reviews
I gave it the 3-stars because of my experience with in in windws-7. It may work better on older OS's (XP or vista 32 bit systems) but it didn't work out of the box on win-7/64. There are no drivers for win-7...finally dug around and found some from other video caputre hardware that work.It does the video capture fairly well when i finally got it working. I have never been able to get the software to work, it installed, but errors with missing files when i try to run the program, and exits...So, there you have it...
This product worked for me out of the box on Windows 7 SP 1 64-bit. I think the secret is to download the best driver for it from the Internet. Unfortunately, the best driver is not the latest driver. It was written by eMPIA Technology, Inc. You can find it by searching for 'eMPIA 5.2011.307.0' (the version number). It will be dated about March 7, 2011. The signal to noise ratio on the audio line could be a little better, although I doubt many people can discern it (I noticed it on a graph of the audio signal).
