What video capturing device do you use? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

pandora_spocks · 01-30-2003, 08:08 PM

I'm just curious to see what video capturing devices you use. I currently have an Adaptec VideOh!, but it's the older model that came with the software 'Clipview'. Works great with Win 95, 98, and ME, but I have a problem with the software. Everytime I try to set it up on Win XP the program comes up and says 'Works with Windows 95' and shuts the setup window off by itself. I also can't seem to get the device itself to work with programs like Ulead Mediastudio 6 and Windows Movie Maker. Any suggestions on how I might fix this or any other capturing tools I can use with XP? I prefer programs that allow me to capture Mpegs, not avi's. I'm not really into watching the tube on my computer just looking for a simple hook up to the vcr so I can capture stuff for VCDs.

What's that? Is that for watching your tv on your computer and also allows captures?

This is what I have. Works wonderful, except for the Windows XP flaw.

Oh, I'm not too fond of those kind. We used to have one and it had poor reception. I still have some pics that I took. I have this one of Liz from the 'Bewitched Be-Wednesday' marathon on Nick at Nite.

Can you remove one of the pics and some quotes in your sig? I thought we could only have 2 pics in our sigs?

Rhiannon · 01-30-2003, 09:29 PM

I use to do that! I still have a couple pics of Elizabeth that I took while I was watching Bewitched on the Hallmark channel. My computer doesn't reach the living room so I improvised!

I have my Snappy and I'm pleased. It's not for video like you're talking about, but it makes nice pictures. Except that my battery's dead.

I took this picture.

Well, and a lot more, but yeah...

It's not a camera. It attaches onto the printer port in the back of your computer. You plug on end into the video out connection on your TV, VCR, DVD player, etc, and the other end into the Snappy and just push snap. I got it for $13 at CompUSA.com.
