Convert minDV To AVI
Hi Folks,
I have captured a video on my miniDV camcorder and iam trying to copy them to my system. I have a tvtuner card to which i connected svideo output of camcorder and audio to my pc audio in. Iam able to capture the video as realtime using Virtualdub on windows xp. I used divx codec for video and uncompressed audio. The video produced is stored in avi format. I then use that video to edit using some editing software and the final output is stored as vob. The video editor once again converts the video from divx to vob i guess. Iam not very happy with final video quality. Is there any better way to do the same? I mean should i choose some other codec other than divx for the initial conversion using virtualdub? Please advice how its generally done when dealing with miniDV to digital video (dvd) -

Firewire is the norm.

You can always turn off deck control in your capture tool and grab via s-video at 1:1. It won’t look great.
If you capture compressed without firewire you will compress already compressed footage.
