I've recently been trying to upgrade/redo my current setup and so far everything has been working great for HD games; which makes sense as its a digital to digital piece so most things go through looking like the original.
The issue is when i get to the Analogue capture side of things, specifically Composite cables. Generally it seems to be a general blurry or bad looking quality. I know the quality isn't going to be perfect but i've noticed as things progress the picture has become more and more fuzzy through the years to the point there's a pretty noticeable difference between newer TVs that still have composite/component inputs and some older CRT or even older Plasma/Flatscreens.
So now the issue is this same quality seems to translate to the video setup for streaming. This is something i've run into when it comes to the pre-HDMI era of consoles; unfortunately i haven't been able to find any solid info on this.
My setup right now is:
OS: Win 7
CPU: Haswell i5 unlocked (slight overclocking)
GPU: GTX 780 (Not TI but original superclocked version).
I have two capture cards
Analogue capture: Avermedia: AverTV HD DVR (MTVHDDVR C027 version) -- This one handles all analogue capture primarily through composite cables (some component cable setups where available as well.
Digital Capture is: Avermedia Game Recorder -C985 Live Gamer HD -- This of course handles all the HDMI inputs as it seems to do a better job with it than the other (primarily because this caps at 1080p while AverTV is 780p or 780i resolutions).
In the past i've attempted to use converters and other such devices which tend to look a little better but neither capture card seems to like the output (so TV will display it but the capture card at best is getting audio only).
I've attempted to help the picture using deinterlacing and so forth using outside software like AmarecTV To handle this or even the built in interlacing options in OBS. So from all my various tests I've somewhat narrowed it down to being more related to the capture device itself.
So my question is if anyone knows any good setup/settings for this that I may have overlooked or if anyone has a better capture card to suggest?
