    Howiya!

    I have got rid of my Wintv card after it proved completely useless at capturing video (although was ok for watching tv). I have a 32mb Gforce and so really only want it for tv in / out (vidcapping) and maybe some VCR functionality. Can anyone recommend a card that will happily co-exist with my Nvidia (my machine is p3 600 with 128 meg)

    Ta

    I know it's not exactly what you asked for, but if you're looking at ~200 mark I'd advise selling your Geforce and using the extra cash to get a Radeon 32mb All-in-Wonder. Mpeg2-640x480 realtime motion capture and it's faster/more feature rich for games than a Geforce-1. I think they're around 220 stlg.

    Since the wintv wasn't good enough, I'd go for the ati all in wonder. They are a great card, with high quality capture and output as creed has said.
