download from camcorder direct to mpeg2

[ericsank]

Is there a capture program that will download from a digital camcorder directly into an MPEG or MPEG2 format rather than downloading to uncompressed DV and then converting to MPEG?

there are multiple solutions to ur question

1: get either power director pro 2.55 frm cyberlink, ulead video studio 7 or pinnacle studio 8 what ever u like all are available for trial. if u have a fast computer say 2.4 ghz p4/athlon u can do realtime dv to mpeg2. dv to mpeg1 doesnt require that much power.

2: get a hardare encoder like snazzi's snazzi III AV.DV that will do hardware encoding of ur dv to mpeg2. requires less processor speed, excellent quality, but more money .
