Well, I did some capture to my current laptop which is a 900Mhz Pentium 3 with 256Mb RAM. I'm using a firewire PCMIA card in my notebook and the video came out a little choppy in some places, mainly at the beginning of the session like it was trying to "catch up".

The thing is, I was monitoring my CPU and memory usage and the CPU never went over 30% and the memory was less than half utilized so it *seemed* like this wasn't overwhelming my older system. Are there other reasons why captured video comes out a little choppy?

Also, it seems like the refresh rate on the screen isn't to good because I noticed blurring on my laptop while panning that isn't there on the TV. Anyone know what a needed refresh rate for clear video is?

Thanks
