I have been using any dvd to copy my movies to my hard drive. it is not in iso format just the video_ts folder. do I need to convert it back to .iso or can I just leave it as is?

I plan on having a computer that all it is there for is to store images of my dvd's. now I plan on getting a blu-ray or hd-dvd player when I get my hdtv (around the same time).

Users / how fast is the tv capture?

I am using an old pc at the moment just to play around.

now my old pc tends to lag a bit when it comes to things like an xbox/ps2 ect using my capture card(it to is an old version from 3-4 years ago).
if I get a new pc and a good tv capture card will I still have that problem?

as well this is a basic yes/no question hdmi some motherboards I see have it already but as long as it is nividia based will hdmi work?
