Capture with VirtualDUB
This manual will help you get the most from your video capture card, using VirtualDUB. Generally TV tuner cards are delivered with a capture driver and capture software but you have no access to capture parameters. With VirtualDub you have access to all parameters, and for example, with appropriate settings you can capture at DV size: 720x576 25fps in PAL format or 720x480 29.97fps in NTSC format.
DV format (720x480 and 720x576) is the same as DVD-Video format and is becoming the standard for full size video. I recommend that you capture analog video in DV format as well (so all post processings will be identical).
The most common chip for TV tuner cards is the BT8x8, so the manual is illustrated with the common Pinnacle PCTV.
