I got a Dazzle DV.NowAv and it works fine under Windows 2000.  Be sure you
get version 1.6 of the software.

Can anyone suggest a good video capture card for a Windows 2000 Pro machine,
where the normal everyday user is NOT an admin?  It doesn't need to capture
video, just good quality stills off of a video signal.

Our Materials Lab is purchasing a video camera for their stereoscope
(read: microscope) that has a video signal feed, and they would like to be
able to capture high quality stills.

TIA for any help y'all can provide...

How about an ATI Radeon.  32Mb card is under £100, 64Mb slightly more.
Windows 2000 drivers, works a treat.  It has video capture built in and TV
out.  I bought one when I upgraded to Win2K as my Captivator Pro doesn't
have Win2k support - the beta drivers are only blacwhite imaging.

Cheers

Just in case no-one's piped up with a solution yet...!



The ATI TV Wonder tuner card ($70) can be used to capture stills. Dead easy,
just select the video-in instead of cable-in, then use the camera icon to
grab any pics. Alternatively, you can the digital VCR utility to record the
entire video signal to disk, then go back and grab and stills that you want.
The ATI TV Wonder VE can what you want as well, for


For more info,


 http://www.ati.com/na/pages/products/pc/tv_wonder/index.html



Of course, being able to watch cable-TV on the PC comes in handy too at
times :-).


Not sure about the quality though - if you want, I can try grabbing a few
pics off my camera and send you the images so you can judge the quality for
yourself.


Note: Once properly set up, the ATI Multimedia Utilities are easy to use.
However, ATI's driver installation process seem to be in permanent beta
mode, so expect a few issues when trying to install them. Once installed
though, they seem to work well.


My card was provided with older drivers that don't support W2K. However,
you can download drivers that do support W2K from their website.


 http://support.ati.com/products/pc/tuners/atitvwonder_drivers.html



Alternatively, you could simply use one of ATI's All-In-Wonder cards that
works as a normal video card as well as providing video/still capturing
facilities. That way you can get the still-capturing without having to add
an extra card to the system.

Brian

If you want an extremely nice card, which we use in our development
environment, check out http://www.hauppage.com/.
They work great, and are used by newsrooms in a lot of places for their
video editing, stills, etc.  
It's a much higher quality than ATI, and has better drivers.
