svideo or composite?

[allen074]

hi,

i can do both svideo or standard rca into my avermedia card... will svideo really make a difference in the capture quality?

is this the reason i cant seem to get above 352 capture? i wanted to get the 720 dvd format

any help is greatly appreciated!

thank you

It should.

No. Its your card's capture drivers.

svideo is markedly better then composite for sure.

composite use 1 wire and svideo use 4 (1 per color and ground).
and for the number of line, it's ur capture card that can't get more line in a picture. I use to have a Matrox G200 and it would do 700X460!!!!???😕 so in a TV, picture was a bit stetch. Get a better capture card or use a DV link to capture.

S-Video also seperates the Chromience and the Luminence (color and light) so the shadows are more definate in the video.

Component seperates the signal by color. S-Video seperates the chrominance (color) and the Luminance (brightness) channels. And RCA/composite (as mentioned) sends everything across smashed together. 🙂
