    DV Recorder?

    Basically I'm looking for something to record the output from my VIVO graphics card (inc stereo sound), then be able to play it back and capture it in order to edit it. I would use a VCR but the quality is terrible and I don't want to lose quality from copying it then playing it back.

    Basically I'm looking for a DV camcorder without the screen, and video and audio inputs instead of a lens.

    Do such things exist? If not, can you suggest something else?

    eh? can't you use a standard video capture device...

    a Pinnacle Studio Moviebox DV or a Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge ?

    i don't see why it has to be recorded and you can't just transfer it on the fly ?

    Would looping the gfx card to a tv card work? I have no idea on the matter.. but that (in theory) could work.

    Depends what you're doing though... I suppose.

    I want to store the output from the TV out, then play it back and capture it with no loss of quality. Looping through a TV card would probably use up too many resources and slow the system down.
