Hi, I'm sorry, I realise this question has been asked before both here and elsewhere, but I can't seem to find any answers. I'm using a TV arial cable splitter at the output of my video player to go to the capture card and my TV. The picture on the TV is much better. I'm using a LeadTek WinFast TV2000 XP with the bttv video4linux drivers. The picture from the card has some horizontal lines interferring, and the picture goes pink whereever there is red in the picture - this only just noticable watching xawtv, but horrible when capturing at a lower resolution (haven't got the CPU power for full resolution). The other funny thing is that if I tune in to the video, and then use the video player to tune I get a better picture (yes I'm making sure to toggle the VCR/TV on the video player), so it seems it's not a problem with the connection between the video and the capture card. I've tried the fine tuning in xawtv, but it only ever seems to make the picture worse when I tune away from the normal frequency.
