I have an all in wonder radeon - P4 with 512M Ram. I have been using Virtual Dub to capture at 720x480 with no problem and no dropped frames. I then convert to MPEG2 with TMPEGne/HUFFY. I have noticed that the video quality is better if I capture from the sat receiver than from the hard drive within the receiver. Has anyone noticed this and also does anyone know of anyway to retrive the files from the PVR501 hard drive. I am new at this and would appreciate any input. Thanks
