    I am using an ATI All-In-Wonder card to capture video from my VCR. After getting the file captured, it has a green line at the top of the picture and an interference-tracking ling at the bottom. I use TMPG to crop these lines out and it works fine, but I am wondering if there is a way to crop while capturing instead of having to do it twice. I am using the software that comes with the ATI card.

    I tried using VirtualDub, but this program on saves as an AVI file and I want to save as an MPEG1 file for converting to VCD. Anyone know of any better software for capturing a MPEG1 file from the ATI card?

    Thanks

  2. Stinky's MMC tool has a setting for crop, but I have only tried it briefly and it seemed to crop the top only. I use avisynth to letterbox the vid and Vdub to edit.
    There is much debate on this, but as I understand what ATI tech support has told me, the ATI capture software uses some additional memory buffers on the card when capturing MPEG 1 or 2, which are not accessible from other software, and my visual tests indicate that MMC gives the best capture for ATI cards in these formats.
    Others use either VDUB or AVI_IO, also IUVCR seems to work for some.
