Hi,

I'm looking to buy a TV capture card with S-Video In. I don't want to use it to watch TV on my PC, just make high quality copies from digital satellite (maybe XviD). I'd like to use resolutions of maybe 512x288 or higher.

I see this card here: http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?action=info&sku=118657

but I don't know if it's what I'm looking for. Will I be able to use VDub, etc to capture video from this card?

What can I expect from the MPEG-4 encoder? I never knew that was available on hardware.

The price is what I like about that card (it's just £20 on eBay), but I don't want to spend over €100 on a card.

Is it possible to buy a card in this range that can do what I want?

John.
