It's been several months, I'd like to revive this thread.
I'm looking to do a preservation project from VHS.
The vcr is a few years old and has both composite and S-video out (although the tapes are not SVHS). The VCR has digital tbc/nr built-in which really does nice things for the picture.

Anyway, I don't know where it falls in the whole composite vs. s-video comb filter thing.

Currently I've been capturing with a GeForce4 TI 4200 from eVGA. I know I can probably do better, but I'm not sure where.

I guess the questions are: would I get better results using s-video (and theoretically the VCR's comb filter)?
Should I just get a dedicated capture card, if so what do you all recommended now?
