I cant stand the software that comes bundled with it.
How would i get it working? Ive gone through the timecode options but their timecodes arent listed?
Any way to add intimidation iscratch timecodes to that list? And what audio config settings should i use?

I'm sorry that you're having a problem with time codes from what I am aware of you need to purchase the Pro version in order to fully utilize all the ins and outs of virtual DJ if you register your virtual DJ LE version you will get a discount for your virtual DJ Pro version if you don't see the time codes that you need from virtual DJ you can contact I scratch and they should be able to provide you with the time codes that you need.
But you won't be able do anything in terms of time codes with your LE version the LE version is only meant to be used with the hardware that you purchased it won't allow you to do anything really extra if you look at our home page and look at the different product line to realize that the LE is limited and that's why you won't be able to use any time codes and probably not listed because it is only I can promise you though that if you buy the Pro version you unlock so many different capabilities that she will be completely happy with the Pro version I don't know what the discount rate is but I guarantee you that you will enjoy it.
I hope this information helps you if you need more information please feel free to IM me or just sit up this post I will be following for you have a great day.

I am using it on virtual dj pro. I wont attempt to lie, as you wouldnt believe me anyway. its a pirated copy, i didnt see why i should pay for the software when i am not even sure it will work with the dvs, and i have no intention of using vdj if i cant get it working.
If it does end up working, i will be forced to pay for the software anyway as licences for software are required to be shown to the club i am a resident at.

Also, before attempting to find a copy of vdj pro, i downloaded vdj home and did the 10 minute trial of advanced sound setup, and exactly the same thing happend. So i really do think it dosnt work with vdj.

The 10 minute trial in Home FREE should be enough to determine whether it works or not, and to troubleshoot if not.
The Intimidation sound card will only work with VirtualDJ if it has standard ASIO drivers available and has atleast 4 input (2 stereo) and 4 outputs. If not, or it uses their own bespoke driver, it will not work. You will need to purchase a card that is supported such as ESI Maya44 USB, Hercules DJ Trim, etc.
The timecode records are probably their own bespoke system, so won't work. Your best option would be to replace them with supported timecodes such as Serato CV02 (Can be purchased from almost any DJ store.)
Please see: http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Timecode%20Requirements.html
And if you like VirtualDJ, please support it and its future development by purchasing it: http://www.virtualdj.com/buy/index.html - Your VMS4 entitles you to a significant discount. Using a dodgy illegal pirate copy of VirtualDJ and/or illegally downloaded music at a gig is a very bad idea and unprofessional. You could also risk losing your job and/or prosecution if caught.

NOTE: The general config for a 4-in/4-out card with timecode is:
Inputs: Timecodes
Outputs: External Mixer
Sound card: ASIO -> Choose the card in the drop-down list

It does use asio drivers, and it even controls the right deck with the mixvibes DVS (although it cant do absolute mode, although thats obviously because its not a recognised timecode).
EDIT: Just looked, and it seems every one in the list recognises the timecode signal. But only on the right deck :/
So yeah, i think your right. Im off to ebay to find some serato timecodes. If it works, VDJ will get money out of me =P.
Dont worry, i support software developers. Its my day job myself, piracy annoys me too. If i can get it to work i have every intention of purchasing it. But like i say, i didnt want to spend money on something i would have no intention of using if i cant use it with my hardware, surely you can understand that.
FURTHER EDIT: It seems its also related to the fact that the Scratch Mixlive DVS unit only has one phono preamp. Could this possible be the problem that causes it to only work on one deck?
Im rather desperate to not use the Mixlive software lol.

Yes, both deck inputs should ideally have phono pre-amps. There is a software pre-amp in VirtualDJ, but to use that, both inputs need to have no pre-amp of their own (Maybe you can turn it off via a switch on the card?)
It's odd that they'd make a DVS sound card that only has a phono pre-amp on one of its inputs.
You'd be much better off with a better sound card such as the Hercules DJ Trim.

Well i can select between Line and phono? Theres a little button on the card. When i set it to Line i get so signal on the deck that did show a signal.
(it also works absolutely fine as Line in the iscratch mixlive software).
So what i did was ordered 2x serato CV02 timecodes, as i reckon it might just simply be a case that the timecode signal isnt recognised.

For vinyl, it needs to be set to PHONO on both.
If set to the LINE, the signal will be far too quiet and you would need to tick the software pre-amp option in the DEBUG settings of the timecode. The Initimidation software might do this automatically due to being able to query their own hardware to see which mode is set or it might automatically amplify the signal. Remember that their software has been designed to work out of the box with their own hardware. Using hardware pre-amp (PHONO) is recommended for vinyl - LINE level signal is for using timecode CD's.
