Just picked up new Studio AV/DV card. Need some advice
This is a discussion about Just picked up new Studio AV/DV card. Need some advice in the Windows Hardware category; ok I will be capturing old composite video from a Video 8 XR Sony Handycam CCD-TRV57. I noticed that this card I picked up can do realtime capture to dvd quality mpg2 @ 720 x 480 max or avi @ 720 x 480 max.

CCD-TRV57. I noticed that this card I picked up can do realtime capture to dvd quality mpg2 @ 720 x 480 max or avi @ 720 x 480 max. I received a free full copy of the studio 8 software and ive used it before briefly with a previous product so it seems simple enough to use. What would you guys suggest I do as far as mode of capture, program to "clean" up the composite video etc. I will eventually be making dvd-r's of all of our home movies now that I have a dvd burner as well. Thx
PS and yes amazing enough I have it working perfectly under WinXP Pro even though its Pinnacle LOL

You ca capture in its highest settings, but sometimes its more grainy, causes it effectively resampling the movie to a higher res. Try to set the capture settings a notch above what your cam does.
OP
any cleaning programs or programs I can use to rervitalize the video?
if it's old tape then i capture at dv quality (most uncompressed) and encode to svcd (no dvd burner yet)
if it needs cleaning up then i use virtual dub, here is a link with good cleaning tips

if u want to do any editing or fixing i suggest dv capture
