Actually there is a difference between a video card and a video capture card. All computers need video cards to display the video image. But a video capture card actually translates the TV image into a computer video image. That allows you to process that video image however you need to on the computer. You would only need that video capture board on the computer that is creating the QuickTime movie. Other computers would only need the QuickTime software and a good video card and computer. Video processing does take a little more computer power than your average program. I do agree that movies should be sent directly to individuals rather than distributed on the list unless there is a specific demand for them. Perhaps, in that case, we should establish a SignWriting list that is intended for this kind of work. Just a thought.
