The machine we edit video on has a normal videocard, and one of those pyro firewire cards. This setup kicks ass. It is very stable.

We also have Super VHS videos we want to edit.

Are there capture cards out there that capture Firewire, and have S-Video and RCA jacks to capture analog video? Sort of an all in one card?

I suppose there are dozens, but stablitly is the biggest issue. Can't have the computer crash in the middle of rendering.

My current setup is an ATI videocard, the Pyro Firewire Card. Should I just add a capture card to capture the VHS? Or should I get an all on one card?

We are running Win 2K.
what kind od minidv camera do you have?
chances are you can run the vhs into the mini dv camera and then (using the signal convert function) capture with firewire from the mini dv

most sony minidv's have this
