What is a Video Capture Card?

• A video capture card, sometimes referred to as a video capture board, is an expansion card that provides input and output connections for analog and digital video. An expansion card is an interface card or adapter that plugs into the motherboard and enables peripherals, or hardware devices such as video cards and graphics cards, to be attached for added computer enhancement

Function:

• Video capture cards are used to capture screen shots and video files on a computer via an external video source. The video source depends on the input types specified by the video card. Most cards will allow capture from any source with standard video and audio-out cable connections, such as VCRs, DVD players, camcorders and other common electronic video devices

Applications:

• Applications for video capture cards include source conversion into analog or digital media, such as converting a VHS tape into a DVD. Video capture cards can also be used for video editing, television tuning, or capturing video and audio for live Internet video streaming

How Does a Video Capture Card Work?

• Video capture cards are used to allow you to take screenshots or record video files on your computer from an external video source. Most video capture cards are installed into an expansion slot on your computer's motherboard; PCI, PCI-Express, and PCI-Express 2.0 models are available in order to ensure compatibility with different expansion slot types. The source of the video can differ depending on the input types that your specific video capture card features; a majority of cards will allow any source that has standard video and audio-out cables to be connected to it, meaning that you can capture stills and video from your VCR, DVD player, camcorder, and a number of other common video devices. For those wishing to capture video from digital sources, many video capture cards also allow input using s-video cables and some even allow HDMI or other high-definition video input as well. The video capture card transfers the video into a format that is useable by the software which accompanies it, with the software providing the interface for you to decide how you want to capture your screenshots and video from your source

Video Capture with TV Tuner Cards:

• In addition to the video input options available with standard video capture cards, some cards also allow you to capture video from cable or satellite television signals due to the inclusion of a TV tuner on the card. The TV tuner allows you to connect a coaxial cable to the video capture card in addition to other video input types, allowing your cable or satellite television signal to be received by your computer much as it would be by your television. The video capture software will include a television descrambler in addition to its standard video capture options, allowing you to not only capture screenshots and video from live television, but also letting you watch TV on your computer just as you would on your television

External Video Capture Cards:

• While most video capture cards plug in to a PCI or PCI-Express expansion slot on your motherboard, some cards are contained within external enclosures that connect to your computer via a USB cable. This allows you to connect your video capture card only when you need it and also makes it more easily portable from one computer to another; this can be especially useful if you plan on using it both at work and at home or if you wish to be able to use the card with a laptop computer. External video capture cards generally do not contain TV tuner functions and may be slightly slower in transferring video information than internal PCI-Express or PCI-Express 2.0 cards, but they otherwise will perform many if not all of the same functions as more expensive internal cards

How to Use a Capture Card?

• Connect the capture card to your computer. If this is a PCI card, which looks like a small motherboard, insert it into an available PCI slot on the computer. If you are using an external card, connect it to the computer with the card's built-in USB cable
• Attach the card to the video player, game console or other video source you want to record from. You can use a full RCA composite cable with yellow, white and red plugs, or an S-video cable with RCA audio cable (white and red plugs only). Connect the card to the video source's output
• Load the CD that came with the card into your computer and install the software on the disc. This software is needed for the computer to recognize the capture card's drivers. The software also includes a media viewing application
• Open the media application from the CD on your computer. Some capture cards will work with other programs like Windows Media Player or Quicktime Pro; check the card's manual to find out If you can and want to use one of those applications. Once the program you chose is open, go to its source menu and click on the capture card
• Activate your video source; play a video tape or DVD, or load a game into your console. Look for the video image to appear on the application's video screen
• Use the console buttons in the application window to record your video as it plays; the Record button usually has a circle on it. Once you are finished recording, go to the application's Edit menu to edit the video with the Cut, Paste and Delete options. Go the File menu to save it as a file

How to Buy a Video Capture Card?

• Read reviews in computer and video magazines and on the Internet to narrow your choices
• Compare features of any bundled video editing programs
• Consider a multipurpose video card to save money
• Look for a card with S-VHS quality for better video, or a FireWire (IEE1394) port if you will be using a digital camcorder
• Compare the audio and video inputs and outputs on the cards. Look for an S-video jack if you will be using video hardware with S-video input or output
• Find out the transfer rates of cards under consideration. Expect to pay more for faster cards
• Compare the capture resolution and color-depth capabilities of cards
• See if the card allows you to transfer digitized video back to your camcorder or VCR, so you can watch your edited movies on TV
• Consider external devices such as the Iomega Buz, with SCSI card; composite and S-video in and out jacks; stereo audio in and out jacks; and full-screen playback
• Consider a Pinnacle Studio series product for software-controlled video editing without video capture
• Consider an external device such as a Snappy video digitizer for still-image (only) capture
