Hi, my question is what capture card to buy if I want to capture video for DVD making? Stereo Audio is enough and good (not stunning) video quality is enough.

I have a Matrox Marvel G400 TV and I really like it. The quality is excellent. I've talked to a guy that has a $1500 MPEGator card that does MPEG1 encoding in real time and he told me that the Matrox Marvel/Panasonic Software Encoder combo produces better MPEG1 then his $1500 card, although it is very convienent to get straight to MPEG1.

At $289 True Price from http://www.outpost.com, you can't beat the price/performance. Hope that helps.

ATI all in wonder 128 32Mb is quite good also, and create directly (hardwarely)Mpeg 1 et 2 movies. You must have a good CPU, minimum PII 450 or PIII 500.
