I have a few problems getting this setup to be able to capture. The card is installed and works fine as a graphics card. It is installed on an ASUS P4P800-E Deluxe motherboard. I connected the composite cables from my source to the video in on the ATI card and the audio cables to the line-in on the motherboard.
1. Should there be sound when my source is on, even if there are no programs accessing the line-in?
When I initially set up the PC, I didn't have any intention of using it to capture any video, but I thought I would just give it a try. So, I never installed MMC or any of the ATI software. I opened VDub to capture and it worked fine capturing to AVI.
I decided that I didn't want to go through the trouble of converting to MPEG and would just capture directly with MMC. I downloaded the latest version from ATI and installed it. I only got one error message when I went to run it saying that Easylook could not load because I needed to update the display drivers. When I tried to capture, I did not have any audio captured. Opened up VDub again and captured just fine with audio.
2. Why no audio in MMC but in VDub captures?
I then downloaded the latest Catalyst drivers and that really screwed things up. After I loaded them, I couldn't even get MMC to launch. I would get an error and go to the hardware compatibility testing. I uninstalled everything from ATI and re-installed the drivers from the CD that came with the card. It works again. But I am back to the beginning.
Thanks!
