With cassettes and vinyl noise reduction on digitizing is ok, but other effects should be done after digitizing as global effects will effect everything and may need redoing after capture if things don’t go smooth.

Are you using Auto or Manual level set? If using Auto level hiss can develop because of the auto gain.

It depends on the TV, with LCDs or plasma it depends on the native resolution and how anamorphic the pixels are, I’ve seen some that show edge to edge and some that have a little overscan 5-8%, which is close to the action safe zone, the safe zones are mostly for CRT type TVs which can have a large overscan, here is a article on overscan

Elements 7 runs fairly decent, I put a copy on my wife’s win7_32bit laptop for her to cut some dance footage she tapes.
Premiere 7 is still sold by people

[Matt Marshall] “I’m not actually capturing video, so I see no need to include my pc specs..”
If you are trying to bring video into a computer to process it no matter for what you are capturing it
[Matt Marshall] “My input device is a shaw direct(starchoice) hd receiver. Which puts out 1920 by 1080i. I’m using hdmi imput,”
Its possible that the HDMI output of the receiver has DRM on it with HDCP handshaking, its also possible the component outputs have content protection also, see quote below
[the receiver uses the Motorola-proprietary Digicipher II system which has so far been virtually free of the problems with pirate decryption that have plagued other providers] -
[Julie Davies] “I’m running on a laptop but with 2 hard drives. I’m only using the C drive at present.”
If you have a second internal hard drive(maybe 7200rpm) try moving your source footage to there, you never mentioned what kind of footage you are trying to edit, if DV there should be no problems, also HDV, unless multiple streams(over 2), AVCHD(h264/mp4) is a cpu choker, with a laptop with 2 drives I found the best combination is to use the c drive for the OS and Apps the second drive for media cache, preview files, still images, audio clips, etc, and an external esata drive for source footage(capture footage/audio) -
Are you running on a laptop with a single harddrive?
