This may also be causing the problems with VDub.

Try changing your Decimal symbol from a "comma" to a "fullstop" in Windows Settings:

Windows Settings>
Time and Language>
Administrative Language Settings>”Formats” tab>
Additional Settings>
Change the Decimal symbol to a fullstop/period.

It worked. But I still got a lot of lag like frame is on 10fps plus I got no sound.

I have both an Elgato and a Diamond VC 500 (which is generally recommended over the Elgato in these forums, but I personally can't tell much of a difference after extensive testing) and they work fine in VirtualDub.

Even if you don't want to replace your Elgato, if you remove the Elgato SOFTWARE application from your workflow that would help a lot. Here's a simple test I did last year using the exact same hardware (the elgato) and comparing the included software with LordSmurf's VirtualDub/Huffyuv instructions:

When I click on video windows nothing is happening. No options nothing.

Another thing that I noticed in elgato software is now when elgato is set to 3.5 and I connect my JVC to ES10 I have audio out of sync most of the time. But when I connect my VCR directly to elgato audio is in sync.
