Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Hardware / July 2006VISTA Compatible HD Capture Hardware
I just received my beta version of Vista and I am wondering what hardware is currently available that will allow me to capture my HD signal (either DVI or Compsote) from my HD Cable Box. Price is not a major factor. I'd like to get the best quality. I believe you mean DVI or component(not composite since that is 480i resolution only) In any case there are no hardware add on cards for Vista, or XP for that matter, that can handle the bandwidth required to accept decoded 720p or 1080i resolutions into a PC over DVI or component from a STB. >I just received my beta version of Vista and I am wondering what hardware >is > currently available that will allow me to capture my HD signal (either DVI > or > Compsote) from my HD Cable Box.

When Vista is released you will be able to get a system that has Cable Card support from the major OEMs which will solve your problem and eliminate the requirement for you to have a separate HD cable box. >I just received my beta version of Vista and I am wondering what hardware >is > currently available that will allow me to capture my HD signal (either DVI > or > Compsote) from my HD Cable Box.

I have been searching for info and cannot find any info about a release date or whether it will be available to the public and not just the OEM's > I believe you mean DVI or component(not composite since that is 480i > resolution only) [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Compsote) from my HD Cable Box.

Yes, ATI OCUR will be released in January when the Vista Retail from what I have read it will only be available with new systems purchased from authorized OEMS. > Are you talking about the ATI OCUR.
