Why can't you just "save" the files to your HD? How one views video files at a website has nothing to do with the video card, assuming of course they are decent enough and with drivers that can support the file types, and you have the software to play the file types (like WMP, RealPlayer, QT, etc). You just right click the link and "save target as....." or from the toolbar of the playing file "save".
The "capture" on the AIW series of video cards is for camcorders, digital cameras, etc. You plug the camera into the rear of the card and record/copy/"capture" the video and or audio to your HD. -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "rb47" < To one and all, I am wondering what can be used, if anything, to capture audio and video from the internet, no matter what the format of the multimedia, such as using media player, realplayer, quicktime, or something else??? This issue came up last week with a friend of mine - she is using a 56k modem to get on the internet. One site she likes to go to presents multimedia presentation using either windows media player or real player. Others use quicktime for their presentation, such as Apple's quicktime site and viewing movie trailers. The problem seems to be that she is connecting using the 56k modem, and everything is so slow. I have DSL myself, so I would like to be able to record the multimedia presentations for my friend, but the problem becomes WHAT kind of program can I use to capture the audio and video from the web site so she can view the presentation later??? My video card is a ATI All-In-Wonder 8500 card, but since I have never used, at present, any of the special features, was wonddering if that might be a way of doing the captures??? BUT, the BIGGER issue is even if the ATI card can do them, what if I did not have the card - what could I use to record audio and vido presented on the screen, no matter what the presenting softward being used???
