Oh, now thats a kettle of fish I can't comment on.

I don't have that via board at the moment. I'm trying to keep control of
my
array of boxes. I promised no more pc's until I sell one of the old
systems
off.

Now, if you accept the tv out quality on the via mainboard, which I
covered
earlier with Nik in the tail end of the infamous showshifter & me - all
your
base belong to us thread, which is that is has borders, then I would go
with
a wintv card for capture.

The reason is, it's the most popular card. Has deinterlacing drivers.
Available everywhere. Bundled remote.

That said, I've had issues before with an abit vp6 board with a pIII 700
not
capturing very well at all. Its an early via chipset and has big issues
with
pci busses..

As I said to Nik though, I'm currently piecing together exactly what
you
are, but I get the feeling that no one will be lending me a Tivo to
compare
it too ;).

If you want to mail me off list, feel free.
