I'll bet you re-encode I-frame only MPEG-2 files rather than use them in their original state. I said I-frame only MPEG-2 captures are worthless for most people. Matrox M-JPEG and HDV (playback only) Link: didn't say people would have problems capturing using MPEG2 I frame. Matrox Uncompressed in SD and HD resolutions, with or without alpha

Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame in SD and HD resolutions, with or without alpha The following VFW software codecs are provided for use on 32-bit and 64-bit Windows operating systems: As well, the Matrox VFW MPEG-2 I-frame HD codec now lets you render and play back Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame. This includes the Matrox DVCPRO HD codec, and '+ Alpha' versions of the Matrox uncompressed and MPEG-2 I-frame codecs. This version provides codecs that were previously available only on systems that have particular Matrox video hardware, such as Matrox Axio. avi files in your VFW programs without having Matrox video hardware installed. The Matrox Video for Windows (VFW) software codecs let you render and play back Matrox. However, this is not a beginner-friendly task. You might be able to use GraphStudio to build a Direct Showfilter graph for the C027 and be lucky enough to find a DirectShow MPEG-2 encoder already installed on your system that works. AmarecTV uses VFW encoders and I have had no luck finding a good free or inexpensive VFW encoder for MPEG-2.

The Avermedia C027 works with AmarecTV, but if you want to capture direct to MPEG-2, you are going to have a hard time doing that. Is there standalone software (preferably free) that can capture 720p at 60fps? Perhaps some of you who capture HD OTA can give recommendations. I tried Arcsoft Shwobiz which came with the PVR2 but the signal is not being recognized, although it sees the device in the dropdown menu.

I have an HD PVR2 but that captures in H264, which is very good but nothing beats MPEG2 uncompressed at 15mbs for clarity and sharpness, it's stunning if it works right. The Avermedia MediaCenter software doesn't allow 60fps even if set at 1280x720, only allows 30fps. I bought an Avermedia HD Capture Card to capture uncompressed MPEG2 from the cable box (I realized it's most likely stored in compressed mp4 on the DVR).
