I've achieved fairly consistent and good quality with Mencoder, at this
point. My disk space restricts me to capturing at 352x480 or 352x240
(depending on length).
I was looking at new hard drives at my local store, and I saw some
inexpensive PVR devices (PVR-250 and PVR-150 from Hauppauge), and the
thought crossed my mind that they might be adequate for my purposes.
Can mencoder give significantly better quality than one of these
stand-alone devices?
I'm not looking for perfection; I'm only interested in encoding some
children's VHS movies, old family videos, etc.
