| 103354 | 2002-12-05 01:01:00 | Depends on how much u wanna spend :D I think Leadtek's A170 Geforce4 MX440 64MB VIVO will do the job as a entry level :) | SKT174 (1319) | ||

| 103358 | 2002-12-05 01:46:00 | My MX4 460 has VIVO. Works OK, but not a cheap solution that he was asking for. | godfather (25) | ||
| 103359 | 2002-12-05 02:25:00 | Microstar have recently released a PCI TV/Video Capture Card that is quite cheap and also good brand. Seen them for about $150inc. - can't remember where though. :( Can use it to watch TV on your PC or capture video/sound from other inputs on it. It also comes with a video recorder software so you can use your PC like a VCR machine! Choosing what quality to record at etc including MPEG4. |

| 103361 | 2002-12-05 20:07:00 | I have copied some VHS taped versions of old 8mm family movies. Didn't need sound, so didn't connect the cable to the sound card, I can only assume it would have worked had there been sound. Hard to judge quality given the source, but at least it has preserved them at that point forever. I used my GF 4 MX460 card, Video in feature, but I could also have used my TV card which has video in. TV card is only good for 640 x 480 though. You need plenty of processor grunt. A PIII 667 MHz chip is not enough, I tried it in my previous PC, but very jerky. P4 2.0 Ghz OK. I used Intervideo Wincoder to record, it came with my G4 card. |
