| TV-card or a Videocard for capturing movies? When I have my new PC I'll be creating movies I recorded from my consoles (= Xbox, PlayStation 2), I had a Pinnacles Studios PCTV Rave on my old pc, it was decent and I could capture movies in a very decent quality.. I'll be buying a new TV card when I have my new computer.. when I was looking on the german site: www.e-bug.de I saw they have 2 sections: "TV-Tunerkarten" and "Videoarbeitung" that means the first are TV cards and the second are Videocards? When I had my PCTV Rave TV card I never watched TV, that's not the reason why I bought it in the first place, I need to play console games on my PC and record it at that moment.. so what would I best buy? a "TV-tunerkart" (tv card) or a "Videoarbeitung"? (Videocard) ??? it would be handy if you could tell me a type. |

| I think the main difference is that TV tuner cards have Video In aswell, but then again, so do ViVo cards and they are usually classified as regular videocards ... |

| Best card is the Hauppauge pvr-250. it records in mpegII. All the encoding is done on the card itself and not by your cpu. You can also consider the pvr-150 or the pvr-350 both from hauppauge |

| All In Wonder from ATI ..... Personal Cinema from Nvdia; Leadtek TV tuner/capture PCI. Used all three of them; best for capture rather than games is the Personal Cinema .... direct burn to VCD or DVD.
