Okay for the millionth time, i know I should be posting this into Tech Talk, but it seems as though no one really responds in those threads. Anyway, here's my question. I have a fairly new computer, however when I capture at a 720X480 resolution it drops crazy frames. When i capture at 380X240 it doesnt....Is this because of a cheap generic capture card that came with the computer?

If so can anyone tell me the best capture card on the market? And how much it would cost?

People read the Tech Talk...but maybe nobody knows the answere.

go with a nice expensive matrox card ($500+), and you should be okay
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

That's probably about what you already have in your computer...

Michael Alessandro would be the best guy to ask.

I bought Pinnacle Studio DV that included a capture card and software. It has worked flawlessly. I got it with rebate for $70 or so. Normally it's over $100 I think.
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, let me forget about today until tomorrow.

I had an ATI All In Wonder Pro card before I bought my first Mac four years ago. It worked very nicely. Until I got the Mac. Then I stopped using it.

It honestly sounds like you have a memory problem, especially since it works fine at a lower resolution. I know that was covered in your first thread on the topic, though.

so uhhh....i got the problem fixed....

stupid ass me this whole time was capturing from the camera....using a USB port...rather than an firewire cable...
