Hi,
Looking for recommendations on a multimedia system. I will be getting probably a Intel 800e cpu, Asus motherboard (haven't decided which), 256MB SDRAM 133mhz, but I don't know what video card, sound card etc to get. I want to be able to capture video and sound from tv, vcr and videocam recorders VHS, PAL, NTSC etc. I currently have a tv and vcr that have s-video plugs but I don't know if s-video is any good or how hard it is to work with. I also want to be able to capture from a dvd player and dvd rom in the computer. I wouldn't mind getting a card that capture video and sound via firewire IEEE1394. Need to record sound through a microphone aswell etc.
MACs are completely out of the question way too damn expensive, 3 times what a pc would cost.
Also what are good programs to use to edit media.
If possible could you please also provide a explaination of why each component would be good to get and also any conflicts hardware and software.
Thanks in advance.
