Question for RAW Uploaders: What Capture cards do you use?

Now that I have enough some spare change to spend, I'm looking for a Capture card that can receive HD Signals / Input and as well as Composite input. I have had horrible experience before (several years ago) using some of ATI's earlier products - since then have never installed such a device ever since.

Please post any recommendations / what you already own and your experience with the hardware. Will come back in a bit - looking forward to your replies. thumleft

I think I'm one of the very few RAW uploaders that actually capture things here in Japan... the majority of people here download from some p2p service and then upload here.

As for me, I've been using an ATi TV Wonder 650 for the past year or so... IT's worked fine for me and capture pretty vibrant images.

Of course, I can't use it for digital capturing due to BCAS encryption, etc. A stand-alone card won't help you to capture Hi-Vision files out here.
