I just installed a TV-PCI Video Capture Card into my PC and ran the Driver disc that came with it.I am trying to connect a DVD player to the card via S-Video(4 pin) digital cable but could not capture anything that way.Can you please contact me and tell me what software is needed to do what I am trying to do or even if I can not capture video this way.It will be greatly appreciated.Tech Republic is always the 1st site I go to when I have a question about any issue with my PC.I am running Windows XP Home if you need to know that and I have over 250GB free space.Size of memory will not be an issue in using this Capture Card!!
Thank You,
Phillip Whisenant

Firstly, I'm almost certain that 'TV-PCI Video Capture Card' is not the maker's name, but the category of card.

Does it have a model number or name, so I can be more specific?

What make and model of computer is this card fitted into?

Depending on the mfgr of the capture card, you have to select thru the control panel of the capture software to choose between the TV channel, composite video or S-video input. Check the users manual, if you don't have a printed copy, one should be on the disk that included the software for installation.
