With great trepidation at the idea of correcting my more learned friend, Jeff, I think the problem is that the card will not capture in avi format despite the fact the supplied software has lead you to believe this might be possible. It likely its third party software which could capture avi if your card allowed this. The bulk of entry level capture hardware that I have seen does not capture in AVI so you will have to continue to convert. If you have alot of material to convert it would be worth your while to consider a different video capture card..this one is a real bargain right now at tiger direct ADS Instant TV Video Capture 125 Channel TV Tuner http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?
