I don't think that it is a good idea: if I must acquire from an analog |
| 13 |
camcorder, I don't think that the double passage (from analog to |
| 14 |
digital and after acquire) can be a good compromise: the acquiring (and |
| 15 |
the DV camera with S-Video input are very expensive) is in real time. |
| 16 |
That means to use 2 hours to have a 1 hour video (ok that you can save |
| 17 |
the DV cassettes easier than dv Super 8 but...). |
| 18 |
The encoding of the DV camera cannot be good as a computer encoding |
| 19 |
(that has more power). |

I found a list of the TV cards (I need it to look TV too) in Internet |
| 21 |
and yesterday I said one of them in a shop (I didn't know who it was |
| 22 |
Linux compatible). |
