AIW 2006 PCI Express

Curious, I don't need to do any of this to capture in AVI or any other
format with the AIW 7500; I guess that's progress.
Sorry I could not read all this thread but...

More likely a defective card I would think. The ATI support number is
toll free 877-284-1566.

I have been dealing with them for 3 weeks now because of 3 different
issues, thanks. Not the brightest people in the world. Do you have the
same card I have, the AIW 2006 PCI Express? If you or anybody else
does, I would like to know what happens when you try to capture VHS
output for both Macrovision and non-Macrovision tapes?

Here's another question, given that the VHS capture doesn't work on my
card, I went and bought a USB 2 device,which doesn't have an encoder.
Everything else the same, will the quality of the captures be the same
for the 2 following methods?
1) Capture through the ATI card
2) Capture through the USB 2 device.

What do these devices do to translate the S-video into a digital
format? Is it handled by the device, or the capture software in
conjunction with the video card?

function as the input connector to the card, and from then on it the
process is identical as if I was bringing it into the computer through
the card?

Sorry, I'm using a aiw 7500 and a HDTV wonder. But both work correctly.

My PC and VCR S-video in/output cables go to the audio/video receiver and not
directly to each other. Macrovision never makes it thru my receiver so anything copies
to the PC.
