VIVO question...

[Tchen811]

I am thinking about getting a geforce 4 Ti 4600 with VIVO. I was wondering if I can connect the vivo connection to my TV and record show off of the tv in my room? Thanks.

Yes. At least, I can with my ATI VIVO card. I actually have a WebTV box acting as the tuner instead of a whole TV, but the result is the same. I watch TV on my computer screen and can record whatever I watch.

yes u can.

If the card doesn't come with them you'll need the WDM drivers WDM 1.08. Make sure the card comes with a capture program.

I am thinking of getting either the gainward ti4600 or the visiontek ti4600....which one has the better capture program?

 

[Tchen811]

is there an audio input on the card...if not how are you guys able to record the audio off of tv

 

[Tchen811]

Sorry for the numerous posts...but I just looked at the back of my tv and I don't see a video out....how am I suppose to capture the video?

Well if your TV doesn't have video out, then you're probably SOL. The source has to come from somewhere. Do you have a VCR that you can plug in instead of a TV?

thanks Kgraeme...and no I don't have a vcr....oh well

 

[kgraeme]

Two choices left: Get something like a VCR for about $40 at Best Buy or get a TV tuner card.
