Anyone had any luck or know anything about it? I am looking at it as an analog capture device when I upgrade my G450 eTV to a Parhelia.
Thanks!

If all it can capture is MPEG I'd pass.
Better to get something that presents a YUV, YUY2 or RGB capture interface to the system and use software codecs of your choice (HuffYUV or PICVideo for example), AVI_IO etc. For MPEG use something like MSPro or VideoStudio's MPEG capture modules.

I'm in the same boat as you Mike. I'm leaning toward the Hauppauge 401.- Mark

I'm looking at the lower end Hauppauge PVR card. It allows AVI capture (for some reason the higher end ones do not). So, I am assuming it should all capture like the 401 but also give the PVR features. I travel alot and there is a few shows that I like to record and the VCR option does not always work.

The leadtek uses a BT878 chip so it might work with any of the drivers out there for this chip. But, you will find it's wdm drivers don't work with a lot of capture programs and I don't know if it will work with the vfw-wdw wrapper. I am looking at these cards too but I don't know if it will capture how I want. The biggest problem is I'm not using ntfs so I need to use software to segragate the video and that means using different capture software.
On the good side, this card comes with lite versions of videostudio 6 and Ulead cool 3d 3!Comment
