V1 Software and Leadbetter Interactive

[Aaron Coldiron]

I want to get some video software so I can analyze my swing during and after practice. I have Windows 8 & Windows 7 and no Android or iOS devices. I'll use my Panasonic GF1 camera in record mode or my phone to record swings.

It looks like V1 is the leader. Any others I should consider?

Also, has anyone used the David Leadbetter Interactive software? Is it the V1 Pro software? Any idea what version / year it might be?

Does the V1 home version support HD?

They have so many versions it is tough to figure this out, and I haven't seen any really thorough reviews which are recent.  Thanks.

Leadbetter interactive is just a re-branded v1 really.

I have both on my pc (v1 free version),The problem I had with windows 7 was that I needed to download the vista update for Leadbetter Interactive to fix an issue where when drawing lines the video would disappear.

Thanks, that is helpful.  Did you notice any additional features with the Leadbetter version vs V1 Home? I'm wondering if you can do multiple cameras, etc.  Do you recommend just getting V1 Home or going for the Leadbetter one?

I only have V1 Home Basic - the biggest difference between this and Leadbetter Interactive (LI) is that you can do side by side swings in LI. You will be able to do this if you upgrade V1 to the premium version.

LI for me won't run at a higher resolution than 1024x768, but V1 will run at my monitor's native resolution which is 1680x1050.

Both will allow you to download swing models of pros but I think you'll need to pay a subscription for that...

Overall, if you upgrade to the premium version of V1 they'll be pretty much the same. I'd tend to use LI so that I can compare my swing to others, but like I said, if you upgrade to V1 home premium you'll be able to do the same on there.

I've added a screenshot of each below.

Or, if you have a Mac, have a look at what evolvr use - http://analyzrgolf.com/

For Erik - are there any plans to make a version of Analyzr for Windows, or Linux?

Absolutely not.
