Hi All,
Bought this card a couple of months ago after struggling with a PCTV card. It came bundled with WinDVR, which worked OK with capturing to VCD and SVCD, but would always crash when I tried to capture straight to DVD (PAL). Apart from that, the card is a great improvement.

Anway, I happened to check their site today and there's a free upgrade to WinDVR 2.0! When I downloaded this and tried it, I was amazed. No dropped frames, no sych issues and no crashes. And what's more, the resulting file looks as good as the old Vdub>TMPEnc efforst I used to put out, and all done in real time.
Please bear in mind I only capture crappy old VHS tapes (I want my collection of odds and ends transferred to DVD), so I only get a picture as good as the one that goes in, but if that's your intention too, get to their site and download the new version of WinDVR!

I realise that this post is not much use to the great majority of you, but I hope it helps someone.

Thanks as always are due to Balrick et al for such a great site.

Hello!

Thanks for the tip. I didn´t manage to find it for free. But I was offered to buy it with a discount. Perhaps you could share the web adress where you found it or mail me the file direct.
Thanks in advance.
