Is there English version of manual and software?

No, but once you insert the install disk you can select the button on the left within the installer window and the rest of the steps only have one button.

Is this compatible with a Mac?

It does not correspond to the MAC.

Does this work in Windows 10?

Installed the software and used the device on my Windows 10 laptop with no problems.

Do you need to have a cd drive to use this capture card? or is there a way around it?

You can download the driver from I-O DATA's website, if you can navigate enough in Japanese. (I'd recommend using Google translate if you can't). You don't get some software that comes with it, but really you only need the driver and some application (like AmarecTV/VirtualDub or OBS/Xsplit) to use it with once the driver is installed.I don't think I can link URLs on Amazon so here's some instructions on how to find it. (In case anyone is curious)Search for "iodata gv-usb2 driver" or something simular into a search engine (should return a result with a .jp domain), and there's colored buttons for which version of Windows on the page.Click one of the buttons, and then hit the button with the icon next to "ダウンロード".You need a Serial Number from your device (mine was on a sticker attached to it) to enter into the box to the right of "S/N" and then click the ダウンロード button below it.With any luck it should download the driver which has a pretty simple installer to get through. Good Luck!
