RE: Video Capture (Again!)

[Pedro de Oliveira <oliveirp@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Keith

I use the ATI TV-Wonder under win2k.  There were some initial problems when
win2k was first released but all has been ironed out now.  It works
extremely well for capturing TV as well as CCTV. It also has a s-video in
and TV out.  There is a "schedule" type of program as well so you
can set it
to record TV if you are away.

If you need any more info just say

HTH

Hi All,

My turn to ask a Frequently Asked Question.

What is the best Capture card that I could get for a "reasonable"
price?

Requirements.

Can be either a Capture Only card or an All-In-One type graphics card. Must
be able to save files in a generic format eg Mpeg or AVI. Must allow the
files to be played on ANY other machine using Windows
Media Player.

Software.

Something like Showshifter would be nice although not essential as
recording would be a manual process. How well do the programs
supplied with ATI/Matrox/Haupaggue cards perform. ( I have an early
WinTV card and have never had too much luck with the software with
lockups and hanging being frequent )
