Video Capture Tosh. 4900
Can anyone advise me as to what is the best video capture device to use to get
decent-quality video into a Toshiba T4900CT Pentium notebook that can be docked
to a docking station (DeskStation IV)? I've been reading here about the Intel,
FAST, and miro cards; does anyone know how well these would work in this
environment? One concern is that the video display is built-in, so I can't
connect to a VGA feature connector; I only have one slot, or at most two,
available. Also, the Toshiba comes with Indeo installed, but I'm not sure
quite what that means; does that mean it's best to use the Intel Smart Video
Recorder Pro? I just want to do presentations including decent video from the
PC for the present; down the road I will probably want to output to videotape
(Hi8m which is what my video consists of). Also, I have read about some PCMCIA
video capture cards; does anyone know how good these are for this purpose?
Thanks for any advice.
