I am currently shopping for a video card for capturing video and
playing back to tape. I have read some favorable posts for this card
and was wondering if anyone has any input as to whether or not this is
a good card. I will just be using this to do a wedding for a friend
and possibly editing some of my own videos so at this point speed,
power, and to a certain extent quality are not high on my list. I
just need something that will get the job done so I dont mind if it
takes a little longer or the quality isnt super high (I will be
capturing from hi8 so I would like it to be maybe on the same level as
that. I plan in the future to get a better card, well a better
system, for editing on but for right now just adding a card to my
current setup is whats in my buget. My current setup is p3 633mhz
(yeah I know), 192 ram (again, I know), an about 70gig of free space.
I will be using Premiere with it if anyone has any experience with
this combo. I have been looking at the ATI All in Wonder 128 Pro Rage
PCI 32MB models that are going on ebay for $40-$50. Is that too much
to pay? Is the PCI version ok? I dont have an AGP slot so PCI is my
only option. THanks for any input that you can give.
