I't been a long time since I used a Pinnacle capture card. The one I has
was one of their early USB capture modules. As I recall, the video wasn't
that great. But then again, I think it was USB 1.0.
Hauppauge capture cards are actually fairly cheap and likely to get
cheaper since the built in tuners are about to become useless.
I just ignore the turner and only use the S-video.
However, if you already have the DC10, I'd give it a try. All you're
wasting is a little time.
