Default ati x1650 pro

The WDM capture driver can be downloaded by itself he
http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/xp/radeonxip-xp.html . However, it should
have been included if you downloaded the 35 MB Catalyst driver package
previously.

Note that's just the driver. You will still need a WDM-compliant app to
capture the video. You are free to use whatever app you want (like Adobe
Premiere). A basic open-source app is Virtual VCR:
http://virtualvcr.sourceforge.net/ .

The dongle cable is available he
http://shopati.ca/product.asp?sku=2702995 . I'm surprised if it wasn't
included in the box, though.

it has 9 pins... sounds like we're getting somewhere... Where do I get the
capture driver, and is there something missing hardware wise,, dongle
perhaps?

How many pins does the "S-Video" port have on the back of your X1650 Pro?
If it has four pins, then it's output-only. If it has nine pins, it is a
VIVO port with capture capability.

I'm surprised the X1650 actually turned out to be a little faster than
your FX 5900 XT. Should have gone for something like this for a
meaningful speed improvement:

I just picked up an X1650 pro at FutureShop today. My goal was to
breath a little life into my AGP based system. My old card was Nvidia FX
5900 XT, and found it getting slow at the newer games...I also used the S
video input on the old card to watch the dish via nvida capture driver.
My hangup is that my new card is little faster the the old card, yeah!
but to my dismay it don't look like it supports S video input??
bummer.... Can anyone shed a little light on this.... I thought this
feature was standard issue on all cards, Nvidia based cards always have
had it...
