I have a Sony Handicam. Better quality than any cheap USB or NTSC camera. So i figure use a TV-in card for the webcam instead of buying a webcam.

1. Will this kind of a setup work to make a solid video feed (non jpg refresh)?


Assuming yes to question 1: I am looking for any PCI NTSC composite in card. TV-Tuner is a bonus. It will go in my server, so it has to have very stable drivers. I have an ATI TV Wonder VE, but the drivers suck, and require reinstalling frequently.

Happauge Cards seem stable, but I really am not sure which to pick. I am looking to relieve server load so cheap software based cards arent really a good choice.

2a. Hauppague seems to make solid cards, but perhaps they are overkill for my needs?
2b. Do the Hauppauge MCE editions only work in Windows MCE?
