Hi, and thanks for the reply! I found a Pinnacle DV500 capture card here, but this thread seems to indicate that the driver of the DV500 only support the Pinnacle DV codec. For editing purposes I was hoping to be able to use a lossless codec, therefore a PC/capture card setup is preferred over using a DVD recorder for capture.

Do you know if the Pinnacle 500/700 drivers support any lossless codecs? And what about PCI-E capture cards, I notice that there is a lot of them out there. Do any of them have drivers that support lossless codec(s) whilst providing a decent picture quality?

Regarding a TBC, I have no idea what I'm looking for! Could you help me with some names that would work well with the HR-S7600EK?
