Windows XP release date was August 2001, SATA wasn't available until 8 years later May 2009, So saying SATA was available back then is flat out wrong. It's the same as saying smart phones were available in the windows XP days because I'm running windows XP on my phone right now.

Thanks for the sample but the quality did not seem any better than using my ADVC 110. Christina will need to decide if it is a better result than her method.
Having said that you claimed you used a Fire Wire DV device to capture in MPEG 2 and avoid the DV quality. My ADVC 110 converts the analogue VHS tape to DV before it goes through the Fire Wire port to my PC. What exactly did you do? -

Yes indeed!
Not a combo unit, no.
SATA predates WinXP. However, most XP machines were still on IDE. I don't even recall if the pre-SP XP had no SATA drivers, but it probably had some. Latter years had native drivers in the OS installer, and in fact you could install XP on SATA drives. At least 1 of my capture system is XP on a SATA drive. I think you're think of SATA-II (SATA-2, SATA-300, 3gpbs). SATA-I (SATA-1, SATA-150, 1.5gbps), and mid 2000s is correct there.
Get VLC, freeware.
ADVC is hardware DV converter, can't bypass the DV 4:1:1 (or 4:2:0 PAL).

[QUOTE] WTF dude?
Your quoted me wrong. Do an accurate quote next time. Having said that. I know how the ADVC 110 and other DV devices work. In fact I stated the ADVC 110 converts the VHS to DV before sending out the Fire Wire port to the computer. You left that part out. Reread the post. Someone else claimed to use a DV device but were implying they avoided the DV 4:1:1 and captured to MPEG 2. They may have captured to MPEG 2 but the VHS had been converted to DV prior to being sent down the Fire Wire cable. Next time simply quote the original person who claimed to have captured from Fire Wire to MPEG 2. I was asking how he avoided the DV 4:1:1 and captured to MPEG 2. Your quote implies I did the MPEG 2 capture but I did not.

Not to divert this thread (too much), but Surfaces are the tablet for reading comic books! I've got my entire Carl Barks collection in CBR format on my Surface Pro 4 (one of my "work" machines) and that's my lunchtime reading right there.
But for everything else, yeah, they're neither fish nor fowl so people in our department who buy one, use it for a few months, then get frustrated, and trade it in for a laptop. I don't mind, it keeps me in used Surface tablets. -

SATA I came out in 2000, you are probably mixing it up with SATA III, which came out around that time (09). They're all backward compatible, though.
Retraction maybe?

Yes I definitely was talking about SATA III.
Every capture device converts analog video to digital before it goes out in the digital cable, You cannot send analog video into a firewire cable, Can you name a device that converts to DV after sending it out into the firewire cable? -

WTF dude?
Don't try and swap our positions.
Your are the one claiming you can avoid the DV conversion and capture into MPEG 2 when using a DV device. I am the one asking how the end result would be better than DV when the VHS tape has already been converted to DV to go through the Fire Wire port? I think you were unaware of that. Am I correct?
Now you are asking me what DV device converts to DV after going through the Fire Wire port? As I already stated don't try and swap our positions.
I am the one that told you the the analogue source would have already been converter to DV to go through the Fire Wire cable. I asked you how would your MPEG 2 video be better than DV when it was already converted to DV to be sent through the Fire Wire cable.
Below is your original post and your MPEG 2 video from Fire Wire source that you claim is much better than DV because MPEG 2 is better than DV. The video is no better in quality than DV because it was already in DV format as it went through the Fire WIRE port. You could capture in uncompressed 4:4:4 but the video source would still be DV if you used Fire Wire.

Thanks for noticing. You think that is bad dellsam34 is trying to swap our positions.
dellsam34 is the one who claimed he could use a DV Fire Wire device and get a better result than DV by capturing to MPEG 2. I was the one that informed him the VHS video would have already been converted to DV to go through the Fire Wire cable so how could he have better quality than DV? Now he and Lordsmurf are trying to act like they are informing me that analogue video sources must be converted to DV to go through the Fire Wire port.
There are dishonest people here to say the least but they will be called out for it. Having said that I am sure everyone here knows I am well aware of how Fire Wire DV devices work.
-
Swap positions ????? I hope you are not talking dirty. This has nothing to do with Lordsmurf, You quoted me I responded.
Lordsmurf did however explained to you in another thread before that Firewire is a digital port it is not a video codec, So you can connect a hard drive, an optical drive, Stream DV, Stream MPEG-2 .....etc
Second, D-VHS has absolutely nothing to do with DV.Last edited by dellsam34; 3rd Apr 2019 at 21:53.
