What is the best software for copying vhs tapes to my computer. I have powercinema 3.0 (crap) with my ATI wonder elite and it is very flaky. Want to use something better with less problems. Emailed ATI but they informed the problem was macrovision-which I believe is crap because the problems happen on all tapes.

if you describe your problem, we could probably tell you if it is macrovision or not. do you get a weak or dark signal that seems shaky alsmot like the tracking is off on your VCR? if so, it's probably macrovision.

you need a input device that bypasses the analog macrovision protection. i do not do these types of transfers so I'm not sure what to recommend, but i think there's a product called the "sima go video" something or other.

try a forum search for sima and see what comes up about macrovision bypass.

ATI has always had problems with video capture...
I use Hauppauge WinTV cards and Macrovision has never been a problem...
