HD component capture = megabucks
The cheapest component capture I know of is called a "Sweetspot". I have one in an HTPC for RGBs capture. Its not HD res.
HD capture is another league, huge bandwidth needed. Look at the Blackmagic DeckLink HD Pro, if you've a grand to spare.

Why is it strange?Tob3z said:Humm. That's a bit strange. Yeh sadly I don't have mega bucks
Cheer's for your help though.
Component is able to carry a wide range of resolutions, etc. SD at 480i to HD 1080i/720p. SD is something like 250Mbps, HD component is way higher, 1080i IIRC is more like 1.5Gbps. The hardware for ADC and compression at 6x SD bandwidh is not cheap. An uncompressed analogue YUV HD stream is simply massive. IIRC 500GB/hour for 720p, tbh its a commercial application.
Even the SD component card is £130 last time I looked.
