RE: [PCTECH] Video capture recommendations

[Peter.Colpaert@xxxxxxxxxx]

Rick,

I could give you prices of video capture cards, but that would be at my 
local store here in Belgium, in Euros, which I don't think would mean a 
lot to you.

For what it's worth, I found cards prices between 70 euros (Hauppauge 
WinTV/Go - TV & teletext tuner card, which is what I have) and 276 euros 
(Pinnacle Studio AV/DV Deluxe - Digital/analog in and out).

Thanks Peter.  It looks pretty good.

That does raise a question about cost however.  I haven't priced lately 
but what would a good (not necessarily top of the line) video capture card 
cost?  Seems like they start around $200 and go up from there.

Rick,

I've used ShowBizDVD2 from Arcsoft for converting from Video8 to DVD, 
AVI/MPG to DVD, and also capture live TV shows using my Hauppauge tuner 
card.

The results vary depending on the quality of the source feed, but are 
quite impressive.  And the price is reasonable.

Check out http://www.arcsoft.com/en/products/showbiz/

I am not a vendor, but a happy user.
