Hello, and welcome to the forum.
3000 Rupees is approximately 66.45 US Dollars / 52.15 Euros, per www.xe.com.
The Pinnacle "PCTV" uses a Connexant 878A A->D chip, per www.tv-cards.com.
Many members have 878A-based cards, and have been satisfied with their results. However, that satisfaction comes from using different software; even different drivers. Have you seen our FAQ and our Capture Guide? It is possible that changing hardware will not fix whatever is causing you dissatisfaction.

Capture to Xvid depends upon the speed of your processor.
I'd suggest capture using Huffy, then process that to Xvid, unless
you have a 20 GHz machine, or don't care about quality.

An aside:
You might try using English.

hmm.ok..which software shud i use to capture to xvid....Please read our FAQ (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=32575), then, please read our Guide (http://www.doom9.org/capture/start.html). I recommended both to you earlier. Now I have provided you with links. Please click on them.
You will find that both of these will answer MANY of your questions.
I would also like to refer you to the forum rules (http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm), in particular, Rule #1. You are in violation.
Thank you.
