Video Capture Cards

A video capture card allows you to record video onto your computer. You must capture the video before you can do any video editing unless your camcorder burns the movie straight to a DVD. Video capture cards are available in many different types of hardware. If you are in the market for a video card, you can purchase a video card that has this capability built in. You can also purchase an add on card that can be installed in an available PCI slot inside of your computer. You can also buy an external device that can plug into your computer by USB cable or other connection. Take a look at out recommended video editing software also.
