VGA Capture Cards

VGA Capture Cards for Legacy Computer and Equipment Video

A VGA capture card records the analogue RGB output of older computers, medical systems and machines, so their screens can be logged, streamed or shown alongside newer sources. Available as PCIe and Mini PCIe cards that take VGA directly or through a DVI-I input.

Options include cards that combine VGA with HDMI, DVI and SDI inputs, suited to legacy equipment, training rooms and control rooms that still rely on VGA outputs.

Speak to a video capture specialist to match the source and host interface to your system.

Compare every video capture category by signal, SDI and HDMI standard or form factor, and jump straight to the cards that fit your sources and host system.

What to Specify in a VGA Capture Card

A VGA capture card records analogue RGB from older computers, test equipment and control systems, often alongside HDMI, DVI or SDI on the same card. These are the points to check before you choose one.

Combined Inputs

Most cards take VGA through a DVI-I connector alongside HDMI, DVI or SDI, so one card covers mixed equipment.

Resolution and Frame Rate

Capture at up to 1080p60 on most cards, with auto-detection of common VGA computer resolutions.

Host Interface

PCIe for desktop and rack PCs, Mini PCIe for embedded systems, or USB for portable capture.

Channel Count

Single and dual-input cards, plus multi-channel devices that capture several sources at once.

Jetson Support

Drivers for NVIDIA Jetson on many cards let older displays feed AI and inspection software on an edge computer.

Linux and Windows Drivers

Linux and Windows drivers with SDKs, so the card works with recording, streaming or analysis software.

VGA Capture Innovation & Legacy Video Insights

We specialise in capturing video from equipment that still outputs VGA. Our team of embedded system design engineers recommends and configures VGA capture cards to the source and host your system needs.
