I thought i'd make a little guide about what I know about CaptureCards as I've been seeing alot of people making threads about them so here goes.
And there we are, i'll try to add some more info over the next couple of days.
Please stop making threads about capture cards -_- Anymore and they will be closed.
Fellow Moderators / Admins, please feel free to edit my post if you have any other information about capture cards.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Hauppage HD PVR
170-210
This capture card records in HD, it is probably the best capture card on the market, alot of people have them and I have heard they're easy to set up too. If your used to making montages and stuff like that I'd defiantly save up and get one of these if I were you.
Here's a video, being recorded from my HD PVR.
Also here's a link to the Hauppage website with some info about the HD PVR

Black Magic TTG_Jake Edit
A Black Magic would set you back around 135 / $200
A Black Magic you usually put in the PCI slots on your PC/Laptop you can record in HDMI instead on Component cables meaning slightly better quality than the HD PVR also HDMI doesn't use compression so you can record video without video compression, or choose a better compression more compatible with the work you're doing.

Dazzle DVC 100
30-50 - You will also need 3 splitters and 1 audio cable, you can find these on amazon.
Dazzle's are very popular and easy to set up. All you need to do is follow a couple of tutorials on YouTube and away you go.
I think you can get the quality to almost be the same as a HD PVR, all you need to do is set it up and right and select the correct settings. If your just starting up to recording and stuff like that i'd defiantly buy this, they're cheap and good quality, but thats just my opnion.
You from anywhere really, shops or the internet, they're easy to find too
Here's a quality test from my friend MrJevZ

EasyCap
I don't really know much about EasyCaps either but I know some people who have them and they have all said they're easy to set up.
TTG_Jake Edit The latest Easycap is compatible with PAL_60 and NTSC_233, It also has the 3.1b Chipset meaning great quality any other EasyCap models normally only record black and white since they only work with PAL_50 be careful ahen you are buying one and read it all properly you can pick up from around 15-20.

Thanks for this! Interesting read, was thinking about buying a HD PVR a few months back but then realised it would be a waste of money to me.

Yeah it's expensive but they're worth it considering you can set them to record a TV Program, record DVD's, record anything really. The quality is outstanding too be honest.
