    That's little to go on....
    But i use WinDV, and Studio 8 (Gold)
    Both are easy to work with, and Studio 8 renders good quality.

    Just did a search to see what a "Aver dvd ez maker card" realy is, (Avero did not give anything...)
    Well..... for $25 you shouldn't..... expect too much,
    but you are in luck! you didn't waste too much money,
    in general, forget analog capture cards,:(
    Do it "the box way", best is ADVC300, it has extra
    picture stabelizing features, but the ADVC100 will
    also do, it captures to DV AVI, (like what comes out of a MiniDV camera) and you connect this box, to your
    Firewire port, or you buy a (non Texas Instruments)cheap PCI add on card if you haven't got a Firewire
    port yet.
    Or buy the latest All In Wonder ATI video card (AGP)
    but expect a lot more "work" to do, and less quality..
    Evaluate your "need", and money you want to spend..

    btw. checkout what ADVC100 users say about it,
    I've one myself, and i like it...
    Other brand boxes may give audio sync problems...
    The Canopus products have this "locked"
