Has anyone tried the Ulead "MPEG-Direct" capture feature as described below?
 If so, were you able to simply plug your camcorder into a generic firewire
 PC card & create a MPEG2 file on the PC disk in real time?
 
 If so:
 - was the A/V quality of the burned video DVD OK?
 - what was the GHz speed of your PC?
 
 Are they saying below that a standard run-of-the-mill 1394 card will work,
 or that
 you will need a special "capture board" with an IEEE 1394 connector?

 In addition to complex menu design, Ulead DVD Workshop includes convenient
 capture and conversion tools. Ulead's MPEG-Direct capture saves conversion
 time and hard disc space by capturing video directly to MPEG format using
 FireWire (IEEE 1394) and analog capture boards. DVD Workshop also imports
 existing AVI and MOV video and automatically transcodes the files into
 high-quality, DVD-ready MPEG files when the user is ready to burn their DVD.
 To simplify the recording process, Ulead DVD Workshop works directly with
 the newest DVD-R,/RW, and DVD+R/RW recorders as well as most CD-R and CD-RW
 devices without the need for additional burning software.
