Canopus Advc-1394
Canopus Advc-100

I need to find out if both can do direct conversion from analog and Dv to mpeg 1 and 2 using just software. I know that 1394 does it using the included Winproducer3 but was told by most that the 100 does not. I read the latest post for the 100 comments for cature cards on this site in which someone has mentioned using ulead videostudio 6 and capturing Mpeg1 directly. So the question if this is possible with the 100 as well as mpeg2 capture.

On the other hand i know 100 has a feature of disabling macrovision but do not know if 1394 does, while we are on copy protection how about cgms, do both these cards handle Cgms????


thanks for the help in advance
