I was looking at purchasing the orangelink capture card. Can anyone give me some input wether it's a good buy or not? It is OHCI compliant BTW.

Thanks in advance.

The Orangelink is ok. We advise getting the Pyro or SIIG if at all possible- those companies have the best quality control from what we've seen, and the price dif isn't much.

I've found a Pyro Basic DV. Is that suitable?

Pyro cards are a good choice. Don't install ANY of the bundled software that comes with it- you don't need it.

I can't vouch for the quality control standards, but D-Link has been very good in my experience. I usually base my initial decision of an unfamilar company on their web site and D-Link has a very VERY informative and well designed web site. Since my initial experience with D-Link I've used, installed, or successfully recommended use of at least 6 different products from them and all have performed flawlessly.

So, if you aren't using the software from the other companies, D-Link might be an option for you. What do you guys think SoFo? Heard anything bad about D-Link?
