Capturing: Lost frames every 10-15 mins
 

Hi, This drive me a nut. I am using virtualdub to capture avi file @640x480, ntsc. It captured ferfect 0 lost frame after 10 - 15 mins suddently lost frames about 80 - 100 frames in a row then it stops and run fine (no lost frame) for another 10-15 mins then lost frames again for a few seconds (100-200 frames). Can anyone give me an ideas why?????
:x :x

My computer is Intel 933MHz, 512MB RAM, WINXP pro (just reformat 40gb HD and installed requirement files to do capturing and encoding video) 40GB , blank 80GB captured drive, EIDE100, 7200rpm with dma enable, no other applications running. Turn off all screen saver, power saving.

What's your capture card?

Hi Kwag, My captured card is WinTV from Hauppauge.

Today's your lucky day!.

Download these drivers:
http://btwincap.sourceforge.net

And bye bye to dropped frames. :)

Anyone got these drivers to work with miro/pinnacle PCTV-card, and are they better then pinnacles.

Hi Kwag, I will pick a lottory ticket on the way home. So wish my luck on the lottery ticket instead of captured driver :lol: of course, you will get the commission too if the luck strike on me :roll:

Thanks for the link.

Hi Learner

if you can read german, you can look to this german board, where users talk about capture with tv-card or capture-card and other problems round DVD and SVCD.

Hi Learner:

I am using btwincap version 5.2.9 under Windows XP Home and Windows XP Professional with a WinTV GO card. No problems at all.

I loose maybe 2 frames in a 2 hour capture at 29.97fps at 352x480.

Hope this helps.
