Well, it is what it is. I will see if I can get a better angle of the TV next time, it doesn't look too shabby actually!

See if I can get the brightness down a bit to adjust for the blinding light of the TV!!

New camera and new capture hardware/software news-

Two weeks ago we acquired a new capture device, used mostly for digitalizing old Analog home video's and movies. Its called CapEasy. I had originally planned on using it with Video Studio 10's capture software, but ran into a few snags. When I captured in Uleads VS10 the file sizes were enormous! Somewhere around 900mb a minute. sure the quality looked good, but WTF? almost a gig a minute? Thats too big. I found that there are options to change this, but the quality of the video plummets using smaller capture sizes. I read online, that Microsoft's Movie Maker had capturing features and we could check to see if it was compatible with the CapEasy. And sure enough, when I went to options to select devices, it popped right up! To say I'm pleased is an understatement!! The video looks great, and its only around 14mb a minute for the same quality video!!

The major draw back to CapEasy is its poor audio. It has a muffled/ low quality sound capabilities. The only work around I can think of is using Movie Maker or Video Studio to capture the sound separately in MP3 files. This could actually work out, and while making the process slower, it could actually make the quality better.

I'm going to be testing out the software with some upcoming Till I Die video's along with some capture projects; capturing some older JPD and ECWA movies.

Wish me luck!
