That makes sense, and your audio is very good, so you can't be off- 
frequency by too much.

Just to check the obvious again, if you take the exact same connector  
and hook it up to the TV set you get good pictures ?

You get this problem on each and every channel ?

Can you try connecting baseband video into the card and see if you  
get a clean record (maybe a VCR output, be careful of DVD analog  
outputs as some of them have "protection" in them).

Has this card ever worked in any system, we want to eliminate the  
possibility of a bad card.
