I am leaning towards the older ADVC-100 model due to the higher rated transfer spec. That looks good on paper, but is this the case in reality? Will it take longer to capture and convert analog video with the newer ADVC-110 model? The uneducated would deduce that a device with a spec of 200 Mbps is twice as good (or fast) as a device with the spec of 100 Mbps. I realize that I am being redundant on the question of the Digital Video In/Out specification. Why would someone want to capture audio only? Is this a feature that is used in the process of capturing analong and converting to digital? But has the lower Digital Video In/Out Spec (100 Mbps). The ADVC-110 has the ability to capture audio only. And a higher Digital Video In/Out Spec (200 Mbps). The ADVC-100 has an extra Audio & Video In Port.

The Problems with High end Editing Programs is that they Cost far too much money.A Good editing Package Like "Vegas Video 5" or "Adobe Premier Pro" will Run you about $500 or more.I"m just glad that I work as a video editor in a Big Studio so I never have had to Pay for my editing software because there is No way I could afford it.Īny thoughts on which Canopus unit would be the better way to go? The ADVC-100 or ADVC-110? If you aren"t going to be Doing any Major effects and stuff them you can get away with useing Mostly Freeware Programs for Cleaning up the Image and editing Like the Newest Virtual-Dub supports DV Files and it has a Lot of Good Filters for cleaning up the Image and you can use a Freeware Program to Capture like DVIO or WinDV.And you can use a Mpeg encoder Like "Tmpgenc Xpress" which is High Quality and Has a Lot of Video Filters and it very Cheap.For DVD authoring I like to Use "DVDLab" because it is easy to use and Has Lots of Professinal Features and it is also very reasonable Priced. One Disadvantage of the ACEDVio is that you will need a Video Stabilizer to remove any Copy Protections when captureing Retail VHS Tapes were the ADVC-100/110 has a Little Trick you can do with it that will Disable the Macrovision Detection.Īll 3 of these devices will produce Simular quality and all will Work well with any Editing/Capture program that supports DV Capture. The ACEDVio also might be more Convenient because it is an Internal PCI card and Not a firewire Device Pluss it is Cheaper than the Other Devices depending on were you Look.I have seen them for as Low as $175 US on e-bay. You could also do it when Encodeing the Captured File to Mpeg-2 for DVD. That can also be done in editing Software But not without Re-rencdering the Captured File which will Take a Long time and Lower the overall Quality.

Yes that is one of the Advantages of the ACEDVio.
