To Imrove Capturing Perfomance

[srinivasan]

I need a suggestion, to improve the video quality
My pc configuration as follows,
Intel celeron 1 Gh
128 MB SDRAM
WIN XP OS
ULEAD VIDEO EDITING SE
IEEE 1394 PCI HOST COTROLLER,
WITH FIRE WIRE
My digital camcorder is CANNON ZR 100,
If I upgrade my PC to Pentium IV 3.03 Gh, and 512 MB DDRAM whether I can improve
My video quality ?

 

[Apokarteron]

no, you won't see a difference

 

[srinivasan]

no, you won't see a difference

Pl. give me the reason

 

[computerhakk]

video quality? as in?

when watching movies? gameplay? dvds?

capturing? meaning? via your camcorder?

Yes you will notice an earth shattering difference going from that old 1Ghz Celeron to a P4 3Ghz with 512MB memory. I'm guessing you suffer from dropped frames during your 1394 capture right?

At least an ATA-100 7200RPM drive is also highly recommended, or SATA if possible.

no, you won't see a difference

Why did you say no?

As tweaker said, there is a huge performance increase from a 1Ghz Celeron to a 3ghz P4, and also by upgrading to 512MB of ram, and possible a better video card.

Im assuming your talking about capturing video from a TV card or USB capture device right? if so then yes, a huge difference.

 

[tweaker]

He meant video capture from his DVCAM via 1394.

 

[Geoff]

He meant video capture from his DVCAM via 1394.

ah ok, you will see a drastic performance increase.

 

[srinivasan]

thanks

ah ok, you will see a drastic performance increase.

I mean capturing from cannon dv ZR100 through 1394 fire wire card,
by ulead vedio editing software, but as far as there is no drapped frames,
If I see the vedio in TV directly from camcoder I am getting better quality,
but after capturing from camcoder, in pc through windows media player, or
any other player the vedio qulity is not that extent.
