Capture Device

[DerWel]

I need a capture card so I can get analog video into my
machine. What is a good one? Pinnacle had so many bad
reviews on Amazon.

Pinnacle may have many bad reviews on amazon, but the people who use it and
have no problems rarley tend to make note, and pinnacle do sell many of
these items.
Have you considered the canopus cards, www.canopus.com or even an external
convertor box, again canopus make these, along with miglia. Have a look here
for some reviews on them.

I have used the $40. Pixelview X-Capture with excellent
results for the past year...on my PC it will capture
720X480 at 30fps (DVD format)

Just remember the download the latest driver (881p) from
the manufacturer.
