[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 696931, member: 82144"] Hi again Not quite right. Software encoded cards are supported, but only if they don't *require* the cable connection to the sound card. There are some cards that use software encoders that *don't* have cable connections at all (I have one of these). Some have an *optional* cable connection but can work without it. Both of these types of cards are usually supported. The audio is sent to the soundcard through the PCI/PCIe bus... Having said that, hardware encoding is almost always better than software encoding (for real-time like TV). - better picture quality - better software support - lower CPU usage for video capture/TV I can't *guarantee* anything, but the specifications look good to me. I would certainly be here to help if you had trouble. There is a much better chance of getting it to work than a card with software encoding. [/QUOTE]
