avi capture in xp and big dish sat capt

[IGuaNAdoN]

ok... first off I have XP Pro, ATI TV Wonder (WMD) 1900XP 512DDR333. I didnt install the ati software... just the drivers.

I have Big dish analog satallite system. what would be the best res to capture in and how would I get that res with ATI and WMD.

I have been useing powervcrii and cap at mpeg2 720x480 9.5MB I-frames only. then I open with dvd2avi and save project, open project in fitcd, creat avs 352x480 or 480x480, open avs in cce2.5 and do 3-4 pass vbr usually not below 1900 avg. is there a problem with I-frames only on capture.... I don't notice any... but I thought I would ask.

I would like to try and cap avi... but when I do I notice interlaced comb lines. what should I do to NOT get this... or is this the best I can do. I have tried avi_io, virtualvcr, virtualdub and iuvcr. some are better than others at getting a highter res but I must be missing somthing.

please take it easy on me... this is my first capture card I have read much in the past 3 months I have had it... but can't seem to do better that what I do now.

thank you for any help.

Im having the eaxct same problem. PowerVCR captures look great, but capped AVi have the filter lines or interlace line in the video. Can anyone help us with this.
