Important concern. When capturing MiniDV tapes from your camera to your computer with vegas, premiere, etc., can having a slow computer or many tasks running in the background ruin the quality of the capture or would it just slow things down a bit and possibly freeze or possibly lose frames. Providing there are no dropped frames would the capture be the same as on a faster computer? Also, another thing, is there a quality difference when using your camera to play the tape to the computer vs. using something like this http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...ecorder.h tml

Sorry for all these questions, just making sure i am doing everything right.
