The point is that now i will be able to record video files , but about best practices to edit and compress , i have no idea .
My hobby are photographer , and this has nothing to do with video .
At the hardware level , the card is based on the Philips Proteus design which uses their SAA7134 chip and is capable of 720x576 with 25fps.
And now the question , does it worth using the hardware of the ATI card for video conversions ?
If yes ... the TV tuner card comes with free full version of WinDVR , is this software worth as tool ?
All that i have in mind , are to convert avi files , to MPEG2 DVD format.
Editing them , are in to play too .
All suggestions are welcome.
