I need to get the video from my PVW-2800 into my computer a little better than it looks now. I have an HP quad processor with Vista 64. My current video capture card is a Hauppauge 1600, using WIN-TV 6. It appears to be saving my clips at 640X480 when it should be 720 wide, and my guess is that the CODEC is not the best in the world (it's their MainConcept-HCW MPEG-2 Video Decoder). I'm using S-video to input and saving my clips at the highest settings but the quality still leaves something to be desired.
What would you recommend as the most cost-effective, bang-for-the-buck hardware & software to do this? (Money's really tight.) I edit using Sony Vegas Pro 8.
Thanks in advance.
