I wish you could capture at DV level, 25Mbps AVI (as close to uncompressed SD video as you can get.) Believe me, you can see a difference between the two when you capture LD.
Hopefully that's just the limitations of the software came with it rather than the hardware, but the card doesn't work with my Pinnacle Movie Maker software. I might try to get Adobe Premiere and see if that will recognize the card and capture at DV level. Try capturing with VirtualDub.

It recognizes the card, but only seems to be able to capture from the antenna input or cable input from the card. Doesn't give me the option for the video input. You need to get VirtualDub 1.9. Other versions will not work with this card. You also want to get Huffyuv codec and capture using this codec. On a separate note, I got Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle for Thunderbolt. I haven't tried HDMI yet. Contrary to many bad reviews it gives incredible quality via S-Video input. --Leonid

Put together a vid and uploaded it to youtube testing the comb filters on the DMR-ES25S and the ATI 750. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbbh3xY3zXAI was surprised by the color reproduction of the ES25S via S-Video as it is nothing like how it is via component to my TV. Through component into my 24" Sony WEGA, the 1.5 MHz plate gives full color, but through S-Video into the capture card, no such luck. The ATI 750 performed better with the cross-color and with color reproduction. And I wish you could really see how the comb filter in the Sony KV-40XBR800 WEGA performs. The rainbows completely disappear when the orb moves and the other section (under the "300" and "400" symbols) have no rainbows either after the first second. I wish there was some external piece of equipment that features this same comb filter ( here's the spec sheet on the TV, but it gives no information on the made of the filter.)

Are you sure that the Pinnacle capture card you used does full chroma resolution? I've encountered several now (ATI 600 USB) that don't. Also, the Panasonic LX-900 has an ~1px Y/C delay that's caused by its internal comb filter (it recombines for composite output). If you didn't correct for it, then it might cause overlapping that makes the end result look like it has much less chroma resolution than it really does.

I'll plug the ES25S into my 24" WEGA via S-Video to see how it does. acuozzo wrote: Also, the Panasonic LX-900 has an ~1px Y/C delay that's caused by its internal comb filter (it recombines for composite output).

Don't think that's it because when I plug the LX-900 into the KV-40XBR800, the 1.5 MHz color zone on the S&W test plate is just fine.

Hello again, I was able to score a Panasonic DMR-E20 . How will the comb filter compare to the on in the DMR-ES25 I already have?

My DMR-E20 was delivered on Friday. It looks virtually new and came with the original remote and manual. Not bad for 30 bucks. Does anybody want a DMR-ES25 with a dead drive? Let me know.

For what it's worth, I have a Samsung VR-357 that came with an iffy disc drive. I got a parts machine, swapped out the drives and now she purrs like Eartha Kitt. It should be salvageable with a replacement drive.
