What is video capture card and what can it do?

Video capture cards are a class of video capture devices designed to plug directly into expansion slots in personal computers and servers.

A video capture card product typically includes a driver to get the device going and a bundled software to bring out the best features of it. The bundled software usually further processes the video for specific purposes. The functions of the video capture cards vary from one another. Some are used to capture base band analog composite video, S-Video, some are equipped with tuners, RF-modulated video, some others are specialized cards that support digital video via digital video delivery standards including Serial Digital Interface (SDI) and some, with the emerging hi-tech HDMI standard becoming more popular, support both standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) variants, and this DarkCrystal HD Capture Pro/AVerTV HD DVR(USA) you just purchased belongs to the last model.
