Fortunatly, somehow on my install of 10 it works flawlessly, however i tried replacing my hdd with an 1tb ssd and a new win10 install and couldn't get the Pinnacle to work correct, it kept jittering making any recording useless. So i installed my old hdd back and praised that it worked again.
Maybe Pinnacle PCTV isn't the best, but its the only one I got for now.

The one I found here on this forum for usb capturecards. Nothing is checked, only 'do not resync between audio and video streams.' and 'Audio Latency determination on automatic, 30 blocks'.
I've tried different settings: sync video by adjusting video timing, sync audio and video by resampeling, Switching general settings of and on, Fixed audio detection latency but it doesn't matter it keeps getting out of sync by a half a second or a second at one hour in.
Arcsoft Showbiz: No audio problem (but crap image so I dumped that piece of garbage
AmarecTV: No audio problem
Virtualdub2: Audioproblem
Virtualdub 1.9 LordSmurf Edition (downloaded from here): Audio problem.

I've actually found it here in the numerous of Virtualdub audiosync topic as an alternative to Virtualdub. No reddit or Youtube post.

It is, I will capture a sequence in AmarecTV and in Virtualdub 1.9 and splitscreen them.
The noise is noticable when there are low-light conditions so I'll capture a scene of that.
Now I use Awesome Video Player to align 2 clips and play them to see the difference
Thanks again for this awesome forum and all the information it offers. Its real fun reading up and learning so much about video recording and restoring!
