    Video capture...

    Any suggestions on what type of program to use (for Win XP) that can capture large images and high-resolution video (via composite unfortunately)?

    Didn't you get any software with the capture card ? I use the standard Happauge software I got with mine which works great.

    Try having a look on download.com if you need something else.

      Virtualdub will do it and does it pretty well.

      It's let you capture at diff res and frame rates and if you have a decent PC you can actually encode it in real time.

      Give me a few mins and I'll post a URL of a very hasty capture I did with it a while back...

        If neither of those work for you, go to look for

        iuVCR (www.iulab.com)
        or VirtualVCR (www.digtv.ws)

        iuVCR stopped working for me but I found it much faster, it can capture at full resolutions (720x576 or x480 for NTSC). For me, VirtualDub limited me to PAL only at 320x240 so I can't recommend that, although it may work for you.

          I got VirtualDub working with an NTSC machine (see vids) at res higher than 320 * 240 (although not in linked vids)

          F-Zero SNES 1

          F-Zero SNES 2

          Pilotwings

          Super Mario Bros

          I don't have any non snes vids on my work HD I'm afraid... those were taken with composite and compressed with DivX. The quality of the videos, as well as my gameplay :P, varies!

          I initially captured them using VirtuaDub and used HuffyUV to compress them *somewhat* in realtime to save disk space.

          After than I mp3'd the audio, cleaned up the video a bit and used divx to compress them

          I've since started using xvid...

          Another alternative, esp with WinXP and a TV card with WDM drivers is Windows Media Encoder. It's great if you don't mind WMV files.
