I didn't think he would want to spend the 300+dollars for something that was linked earlier... or maybe he does..  I just thought this would be a quick fix, something easy that he could set up.

I use Sony Vegas 5.0, how compatible is the Dazzle 150 with that, I was thinking about getting it, and no offense... I just don't get along with the pinnacle DV editing software.

Sorry to highjack...

Actually, that is what I use. My ATI comes with a cable that has S video at one end, and is RCA inputs at the other.


Are you sure it's a 4 pin S video connector?

Here's a photo of an FX 5200 with video inputs, note how many pins in the centre plug, which at first glance looks like an S video socket:

(It's a very big pic)

The vast majority of video cards don't come with video in, just out.

You are right, it's an A/V connection, I have an in and an out.



If he has a firewire connection he can still use the software I linked if there is an rca to firewire cable.
