[QUOTE="haggard, post: 143552, member: 183237"] Provided your PC can keep up with the data flow, you are unlikely to see any difference between captured avi files from different devices or even less so using different software on the same box. The dropped frames are a worry. It shouldnt happen if yr PC processor is (say) 600MHz or faster. If you are going to capture, then there are some golden rules: Stop as many applications running as you can. De-fragment your hdd before starting. Make sure you have at least twice as much free space as the estimated captured file size (abt 13GB per hour). Check the capture settings to make sure that you are not doing any re-coding on the fly. I assume all this is for capturing avi (dv) files. If the boxes are encoding to mpeg on the flky then the dropped frames is an even bigger puzzle. [/QUOTE]
