    I wish to capture video on my pc taken with my Canon Digicam then wish to burn to DVD and also take some snapshots which I will use in a slideshow and make prints also. When I connect my digicam to and show the video on my TV, it is very clean and sharp but when I watch the video on my pc, there is a very considerable loss of quality and when I take snapshots or capture images, the pics are even more blurry. I did this capturing with a cheap card [WinTVgo-FM]from Hauppauge, is it becuase I used a cheap card that I am having this problem or is it that I will get more or less the same results no matter what I use? I don't have a lot of money here to put out for this but I would like to know what my options are please, anyone? Thanks.

    Just to make one point clear, the video from the TV is showing good when compared to what's on the TV screen but it's mainly the snapshots that looks terible. I still would appreciate any advice/opinions.

    I think you could use an upgrade to a 150. But your captured still may just look bad on your monitor because of it's resolution. I have scans,to print on disks, that looked awful but came out nice. Hope that helps. Happy Merry
