Guest Ram Posted October 20, 2002 Report Posted October 20, 2002 Alright, let's say I want to take a few old family tapes, and transfer them to my computer. What do I use for this? I've tried a little searching, but I'm pretty lost with all these TV cards and whatnot. Thanks.
Guest razazteca Posted October 21, 2002 Report Posted October 21, 2002 get ATI all in one video card or Matrox TV card
Chunk Posted October 26, 2002 Report Posted October 26, 2002 I got a capture card for about £50, which came with all the software i needed. Then, all you need to do is connect a VCR to the capture card using am s-video lead, and then press playa nd capture away. You can also conect your camcorder to the capture card and do the same thing. Switch it to playback mode, press play and then capture. The real trouble i found was keeping picture quality good whilst keeping file size down. I tried using div-x and other codecs but it didnt really help? Does anyone have any tips for this?
