it occured to me that the codec DV cameras use is pretty good. i've often seen it described as lossless, yet at 216 megs a minute it's half the bitrate of my huffyuv captures. is it possible to capture into DV format avi, or is the encoding a hardware only option? i noticed the cannopus codec is playback only, no encoding, does a software -en-coder exist?

Try out the mainconcept dv codec, it is great.. Search the threads here and you should be able to find a link....

mainconcept DV codec does look really good but you can only cap at 720x480 with it and I lose frames on a TV cap that big

I always cap at 720X576 anyway, and never have any trouble. the demo makes me think it'll work quite well, obviously apart from the logo and the fact the ouput resolution is only 1/2 as default. i still haven't been able to find a "better" version.....
