Hi everybody,

I know very little about video capture cards and I need to get one for work. It needs to be able to digitze video from a VCR and DV camera (firewire). Quality is not really important, as long as it has good 320x240 quality. I know I need a PCI version as I understand from the computer salesman that there are USB ones as well. All I've got from the computer shops are Pinnacle this and Snazzi that, all tech jargon which is confusing. So if anyone with some experience can help out I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance

The DC10 is around $120, and the DV200 is around $300
They're pretty nice quality, and the 200 has more/better features

Dan,
Thanks for the reply. I checked out Pinnacle's website, the DC10 only has analog inputs. I was looking for an all-in-one package. Seems Pinnacle has one called the Studio Deluxe and Dazzle has the Snazzi DV Bridge.
