new ati radeon 64mb vivo card

[luvvbuzz]

hi,
i just got the above mentioned card, i bought it soley for video capture. can anybody suggest an easy peasy capture program for me to use as all this stuff about frame rates and dropped frames is another language to me. i tried virtualdub but it seem to be complicated, i cant get my preview working. i play a video i want to capture, i cant see it on the screen. i am connecting my vcr with an svideo cable to the radeon card but i dont seem to get anything on my screen from the video.
i know you heard this before, but im a newbie to all this capture world, please help me use this great card to capture my videos.
thanks

The card came with ATI MMC (that tv icon it installed), which is the best softwre to use on an ATI card.

For the same money($50USD) you could get Ulead DVD MovieFactory.

i tried to capture using virtudub but i cant understand how to use it. i downloaded the latest version and it doesnt have a tutorial. i connected my vcr up using svhs cable and then selected capture avi in vdub but i could not see the picture i am capturing on the preview screen.

Just do what lordsmurf said and use the capture utility that came with the card.

i cant use that because it wont work. when i have installed everything, i get mediamanager and it has i dont know how to capture with it, i tried using the tv button on mm but it says it cant operate. then i try the vcd button and a vcd player comes up. i dont have a manual for it so what button do i press to start capturing?
