Hi, As a capture card I managed to rip in full size AVI (small compression), then convert it to DivX with DR.DivX SW. The quality was great (my girlfriend mentioned at the very first sight, how good is the quality). The 2.8GB AVI file with the best quality DivX5.05 conversion became approx. 20MB, and due to the "movie setting" the overall "look" became great (good qulaity, contrast and sound). No jumping or sync issues mentioned beforehand. The only problem I had, that when I start up the TV application, I should always set manually the Sound Recording source, otherwise no sound during capture. But it should be done only once before capturing (just I often forget it :-) ). Of course it needs a strong processor. If my CPU would be stronger, than this Duron900, then I could manage to capture the SVideoIn in DivX format, unfortunately due to lack of CPU power I should do it in two steps. (or only in the lower resolution, which is far behind even VHS quality) I like this card. Except the newest games (Unreal2) everything works fine. (in fact on the forums it seems this game also works, just I had no luck). No big fan (=noise), quick gaming, and the SVideo/RCA output to TV/video is a great thing. I just capturing and subtitling our Paris visit from DV-camera, and it's a fun! Best Regards: MMS Comments posted by MMSZoli from Other, October 03, 2003: Compatibility: Win95? Win98 Win2K? WinXP?

Due lack of DMA for video capture, it requires a relative powerful machine to do real time capture without loosing frames. It does a good job capturing video in AVI format, using NTCS VCD resolution and DivX 5.02 compression. To burn VCD I use NERO. I just drag the AVI files and Nero re-converts them to MPEG1. CPU: 1.26 PIII-S (512 cache), over-clocked to 1.33 Ghz. Motherboard: ASUS TUV4X (1006 beta 2 bios). Memory: 256 MB PC-133 CAS3. Video: 3dfx voodoo 3500 Sound: Creative Audigy gamer with live drive I.

I think the video portion of the card is very good, but the capture software seem to be a little bit buggy. When we use the FM tuner it take an hour just to change channel. Also the video captured seem to be interlaced, quality would have been incredibly better if not interlaced. Overall the video capture function is good for someone who don't do video capture professionally.

This card is great for the price.Anyone with problems,should use the latest drivers.I can capture 340x240,30FPS,AVI,MPG,MPG2,and divx,with no probs.I use the Visual Reality software for avi/mpg/mpg2,and BaoTV for divx capture.With a CPU under 700Mhz,under 128MB RAM,and a slow harddrive(ie.5400RPM DMA33)you will have to use 15FPS,or a low bitrate to capture.Don't use Virtualdub to capture on the before mentioned systems,or you're likely to have sync issues.This card is great for TV in/out,games,and capturing for S/VCDs(use tmpgenc to make compliant S/VCD from the mpg).Only drawback is for people wanting to make DVD videos,or wanting DVD quality captures,because of the low capture size.

I have to say, this is a great card, and overall, it probably deserves a much higher rating. Capturewise however, it's just awful. The software that comes with it is at best, a joke. With virtual dub, even capturing at 320x240 ersults in problems. Not so much frame loss, as frame lag. When there's motion, the top half of the frame will change, while the bottom half will pause. It looks awful. The quality is snowy, the audio has a faint hiss, and trying to capture at resolutions other than 320x240 is risky at best. The picture problems show up regardless of framerate and resolution, basically leaving any captured video unwatchable. That all said, this is a very nice card in other areas. It's great for gaming, for WATCHING tv (no capping) Tv out (nothing like playing quake on a big screen)... generally a fun useful card. It just by no means should be considered for capture...

Quick Info: Tested on: AMD 1800XP on an Elitegroup 3D acceleration = Great. Video Capture = Very Poor. (Bad resolution, 14 FPS) DVD Decoder = Great. _ This card is good for 3D games like Unreal and Rogue Squadron. DVD Playback is good (240 FPS). The Video Capture is very poor. Video Capture Resolution is very poor. The hardware will crash if video game consoles (Playstation, Dreamcast) are activated while the composite source is on. Not compatible with WDM based Internet Broadcasting software. In conclusion: Do not buy this card. the ATI all in wonder without the memory expansion is both now cheaper and outpreforms this card in every aspect.

Just got this to finally work using WinXP. Now all features work great (TV, TV-Out etc...)

I've had this card for about a year but couldn't even *try* to capture anything since my cpu was too slow. I just upgraded to a PIII 750 and now capture works! I'm able to capture a half hour of TV just fine with the included software (450 Mbyte MPG2 file) Richard in Boston, MA, USA Comments posted by Richard Amirault from Other, January 11, 2002: Compatibility: Win95?

i've never had much luck with video capturing, and this card didn't help too. It's a nice card, but the software that came with it sucks... If you try to capture over about 30 seconds of capturing, it begins to drop alot of frames, plus the audio can sound pretty bad too. Not entirely compatible with other video capturing software either. Comments posted by Anonymous from Other, December 11, 2001: Compatibility: Win95? Win98? |

This card is great! There isn't much support for it, since 3dfx isn't around anymore, but if you goto www.voodoofiles.com you can download drivers for all windows including Windows XP. I am running it on Win 98 / Win XP system with all functions workng perfectly. The newest Visual Reality program fixes the crash when recording and offers not only .avi capture, but also mpeg1 AND mpeg2 capture. If you are having trouble with this card then you just aren't trying hard enough to make it work. I hooked up an APEX 1500 dvd player into the s video and composite inputs and I can perfectly copy and create vcd backups if any dvd I want. And you CAN use Nero to burn what you capture...

The card is a very good card however the software that came with it SUCKS. You have to capture in uncompressed AVI then convert to VCD. Use EZCD not Nero. I have been quite happy with the card so far. Comments posted by RM from Other, August 25, 2001: Compatibility: Win95? Win98 Win2K? WinXP? Vista? NT4? MAC? Linux? - Rated: 6 of 10. |

This card is horrible. The picture is all snowy and if you capture above 320x240 you get major frame loss. What can you expect from a company who is now out of business and only a 50 price tage. Only reason it got a 2 rating from me is because this card would make a child a good learning tool and video gaming experience without spending alot of cash.

i thought it would be cool to be able to back up some old videos of mine, and considering i got this card for the equivilant of 10 dollars [its great having friends eh ;-) hehe] i thought it would do the trick -- how wrong i was. after finding my old Gigabyte motherboard seemed to be `allergic` to it, and for some reason a genius soundcard i had kept crashing the Visual Reality software... but after a month of fiddling i managed to get it to work - and its a pile of crap. i was managing to get 30 second clips no problem, but if i tried to capture much more it would roll over and die, machine would reset etc. - i found this was because it gets so dammed hot! and i ain`t got no more space for cooling devices :( heres hoping my new pinnacle card will sort out my needs ;-) Comments posted by bap from Other, May 24, 2001: Compatibility: Win95 Win98 Win2K WinXP?

Good quality capture at 384x288, uncompressed MS-YUV format (far better than default RGB24). Higher resolutions result in high frame drop. But okay if you only want to do VHS quality, like digitising analogue camcorder footage and video tapes. Non-US drivers only support VFW and not its successor WDM (as do the US-only drivers). Supplied "Visual Reality" program has very limited options, so using an external vidcap program like "VirtualDub" is recommended. Live mpeg1/2 capture - offered by Visual Reality - is poor (Ligos GoMotion soft codec). Sadly, no more driver updates now that 3dfx is dead.

A Voodoo3 based 2D/3D AGP video card with tv tuner, composite in/out, s-video in/out, and radio. Captures AVI, MPEG1, and MPEG2. AVI is plagued by Godzilla-syndrome (out-of-sync), while MPEG capture quality is choppy. The worst part about the video card is the "pod". It is an external source to plug the composite and s-video in/outs, but it has to be connected to the card (because it is part of the monitor cable). Nice card for playing games on, but is slowly becoming outdated. There are definatly better capture cards out there. Comments posted by special [k] from Other, March 21, 2001: Compatibility: Win95?

dont waste your money on a piece of crap like this 3dfx claim this card does mpeg2 capture which is true but only using software compression and it totally sucks. you are lucky if you can get 352x288 at like 15fps and the quality is poor. Also the software 3dfx provide sucks. about the only way you can do any capturing with this card is using virtualdub and capturing at 352x288 in mjpeg. use a resolution higher than this and you will get severe frame drops Comments posted by Paul Dookie from Other, March 20, 2001: Compatibility: Win95 Win98 Win2K WinXP?
