I think that is the way an .rar multi-part group file appears to Windows Explorer. My experience is that if you unzip the first file with 7-zip the others will automatically unzip and combine into the final file.

Thank you ExUSAF_AV - I downloaded 7-Zip - The final result is exactly the same. So ... it looks like when I began the de-compress process on each of the 14 RAR's, e.g.: extract part04, that every time, the decompression program (was using WINRAR) automatically looked for the 1st compressed file in it's 'catalog' and followed the tags at the end of each RAR to find the next, etc., resulting in 14 exact duplicates of the total package. I remember this feature existed when using PKZip and PKUnZip back in the 90's, dividing large programs, files, backing up entire hard drives (big back then was anything between 5MB and 100MB HDs), etc so they would fit on multiple 1.4MB floppies. Near that era's end, we were buying boxes of 100 floppies at a time, then CDs finally arrived. The only difference was PKUnZip told you which compressed file it was working on. I guess these ATI archives might have been originally stored on 32MB ZIP drive (Jazz) disks ? At any rate, you were exactly right - Thanks again

Old file upload limits from the 2000s. When I get some time, I can go consolidate things to the 99mb limit.

RE: ATI All-In-Wonder Pro, 8 MB PCI and AGP capture / display adapters.
I have the same board(s) - Paid nearly $500 originally, returned when the price went down to $250 a week later, and one more time when the price broke under $200. The other 2 identical boards were found at a Ham Fest for $5 each in the late 90s. Unfortunately I have never been able to find drivers or applications that will allow these boards to run under XP or anything OTHER than 95 and 98 - I did see someone at another Ham Fest who appeared to have it running under XP (if I remember correctly, he could open MMC and watch TV, however, he could not capture), but his search suggestions did not pan out, and I am assuming he may have had a different ATI board installed. Anyway, I do have the original ATI AIW Pro CD for 98 and 95, and also a download recommended by ATI Technical Support, that I downloaded while still learning the idiosyncrasies around installing this capture board along with another non-capture S-3Virge video adapter (for Dual Monitors, b4 multiple monitors were commonplace), titled: Thornhill, directly from the ATI site ... I would gladly upload, IF I knew where to send them on this website ... am new to DigitalFAQ.Com, which I happened to find looking for this exact query - How to run ATI AIW Pro 8MB AGP/PCI with XP and above. Using 'compatibility mode' never works. Another post mentioned that the capture task seemed to 'hang' MMC, but the system may simply have been 'preparing' for capture. If 'record through memory' is not selected, the app creates a temporary file on the hard drive which can take several minutes, depending on the CPU speed, and HD speed. Again, if someone could direct me to the Upload feature on this site, I will try to get the downloaded versions of the driver/app uploaded.

Hi lordsmurf,

This is sort of a followup to my previous post - I have managed to get ATI MMC working on my XP MCE installation using your post located here: http://www.digitalfaq.com/forum/vide...html#post17596

I am having another issue though - when launching the TV application, the video on both Composite and S-Video seems to be very choppy (almost as if it is being deinterlaced improperly or dropping frames), and has some input lag. I checked the CPU usage, and it seems to remain around 15%, so I don't believe it's an issue with that, however in the latest version of ATI MMC I don't see the "Best video quality" option, so I am unsure how to adjust the video quality settings to troubleshoot the choppy video. I thought you might be able to help me fix this problem.

On another computer with the same TV Wonder Pro card installed running Windows XP SP2 and ATI MMC 8.2 the video is perfect, so I'm thinking maybe it's an issue with the newer version, however I was unable to install MMC 8.2 on my XP MCE computer to test it.

Any way of reposting or providing an alternate link?

My 9800 Pro came with 180-V01068-100 which appears to be older than this post so I'd like to update to the latest possible compatible versions...

FYI, the 180-V01068-100 CD installs MMC v8.5. Several people have requested this version of the CD installer mid-way through this thread so I'm not sure if 8.5 was the "latest" back then, but the original post mentioned to use at least v8.7 or newer (but not newer than 9.02) for the 9000 series cards.

I haven't yet tested video capturing with this version as I'm waiting for the final piece of the puzzle: the 4-pin Sound Blaster to AIW audio cable..

I'm also not sure if I should simply upgrade MMC to 8.8 or straight to 9.02, but the only MMC updates posted here are 8.7, 9.02 and 9.1.0. There was another thread that mentioned using full CD installers to do these updates instead of stand-alone updaters; hence my request above for a repost of CD 180-V01084-100.

-- merged --

Disregard my request: I redownloaded all parts and this time it was able to be pieced together and uncompressed succesfully.

Must have been a glitch during my initial download that caused the problem but it seems it's all good now.

I have an ATI card, but I'm not sure which version. It has only an F connector input, the AV input for the purple dongle, and a mini-audio out jack. The chipset is Conexant Fusion, and the card is dated copyright 2000. I am attempting to install it in an older WinXP computer for video capture.

Thanks for setting up this forum; there's a great deal of useful info and files.

I do have some questions, after trying a bunch of stuff that was recommended here.

I'm down to removing and reinstalling the software, but I have questions.

I have an old Sapphire X1650XT PCI-e VOVI card with the Theater 200 chip.

Sometimes, it captures beautifully, with version 5.1 of the windows movie maker, that I think came with this version of XPSP3, I'm not sure.

The winXP32 is stable, and doesn't crash.

I'm using the 10.2 drivers and WDM (From AMD), and like I said, capture does work, but it's iffy.

It will randomly, on some tapes, detect macrovision, and watching the composite output with a handheld DVD player configured as a line-in video monitor while capturing the S-video output makes me think it's the capture chip being overly sensitive, as the composite to the TV part is always fine.
The Handheld has no OTA capability, so there should not be an AGC circuit.

The tapes are either Camera tapes we recorded, birthdays and such, or tapes I copied on a vcr from another VCR, and they should not contain MV either. Also sourced from a cam, originally. All the copies fail MV.

After reading this thread, and testing with virtualdubmod, VDM doesn't capture at all, and the macrovision hack that supposedly fixes the input doesn't seem to work, and in fact seems to turn on macrovision all the time, even on tapes it worked with previously.
Reading the html file, I think it was for win98, so that could be a problem.

I put the original file back, and it's back to the way it was.

This computer is too new to load Win98 on, there are no drivers for it; it's a 6 core Xeon in a P6TD deluxe.

Since most of the posts here are for AGP cards, I was wondering if you would list what you consider to be the best software setup to minimize the macrovision errors.

I can't see how a stabilizer will help, since it's the capture chip that seems to be the error.

I'll check the output from the VCR tomorrow with an Oscope, to make sure IT's not generating an MV signal; I guess it could be flaking out, it's 20 years old or so, but it's a nice JVC -3800 S-VHS recorder.

I can wipe the drivers, and load a new set of files from here, but I have not done so yet; I just joined the forum so I can download your files.

I really appreciate you making these available for us; you're a dedicated set of guys.

So, to reiterate; which software setup is best to avoid false mv detection for the PCI-e cards?

Sorry to necropost, but I think it's relevant to this thread.

AIW does not work in Windows 7. It probably never will. WinXP only.

I'm sure neotank has long since found a solution, but for anyone else needing the original CD that came with the ATI All-In-Wonder (AIW) 2006 Edition, AGP Bus (Powered by ALL-IN-WONDER 9600), I have the disc. I just purchased a brand new version of this card via eBay (still factory sealed), so I'm positive this is the disc. The MMC is 9.06.1. The CD disc number is 180-V01106-100.

Yes and no, it depends on the version you have.
When you buy it, you should check whether it's a PAL or a NTSC (or SECAM) card.

Nope!

Only the defunct analog tuner is PAL or NTSC (no SECAM version exists, to my knowledge). Nobody uses the 2000s tuner in 2020.

All AIW card, when using s-video or composite inputs, can capture PAL, NTSC, SECAM, and most all of the variations therein.

Here is ATI MMC 9.06 Disc id 180_V01106_100.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j2J...ew?usp=sharing

I have AIW 9600XT AGP. In ATI MMC 9.06, when I make a new Preset, the frame rate is stuck 0.01 fps and when I use it, Windows XP crashes. I downloaded MMC 8.7, I don't have this problem but the resolution height is stuck at 240.

-- merged --

Here is MMC 8.8 Disc id 180_V01085_100
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Tw_...ew?usp=sharing
I installed MMC 8.8, 9.02, 9.1. All limited to 240 pixels. Only 9.06 allows me to capture 480 pixels but uncompressed. I cannot use HuffYUV.

MMC 9.06 is not meant for AIW 9600XT because it didn't through the audio capture setup so I cannot capture audio when using VirtualDub.

I recently bought a Windows XP machine with PCI slots only. Would an ATI AIW X600 Pro 128MB DDR PCI work well? Would it quality-wise be preferred over a ATI 600 USB in Windows 7 or XP? I was looking for a thread I remembered comparing them as steak and spam, but I haven't been able to find it or the reasons why.

If AGP is preferred over PCI, a friend just messaged me they have a Windows XP machine with AGP slot available as well.
After reading many threads, a little bit confused which of the X600 PCI, another one, ATI 600 USB or my current GV-USB2 would be best.

ATI AIW (internal)
- AGP best
- PCI next best, but not the oldest 16mb cards
- PCIe (PCI express) last

ATI AIW USB probably tied with AGP/PCI, audio is maybe a tiny bit more tinny than the best Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card. Almost not worth mentioning, you'd need reference-grade speakers to even hear the slight acoustic difference in the upper registers.

PCIe cannot use the good ATI MMC, and has some image offset issues (right/left aligned overscan, not centered).

The PCI cards are rarest, but I do have some in the marketplace from time to time.

The best AGP are the 9xxx series cards, but there's nothing wrong with the 7xxx. The biggest issue for 9xxx is making sure you get all the "accessories" (required wires!) when buying it.

That GV-USB2 shouldn't even be on the list.

You refer to my most recent comparison list of cards, to dinner options:
- turd = Easycaps, the "grabbers" (GV-USB, etc)
- cricket = Dazzle
- hash/spam (canned meat) = ATI 600 USB and clones
- hamburger = certain Pinnacles
- steak = most ATI AIW, mostly reference to AGP/PCI/USB

I'll gladly eat a steak, love a good hamburger, and hash makes a nice quick/easy meal. All 3 are great options. All all 3 are very similar. The fact that the AIW is better doesn't mean the 600/Pinnacle are bad, nor that the Pinnacle being better means the 600 is bad. Realize that I use all 3 cards myself, especially AIW and Pinnacle. The main difference in Pinnacle and ATI 600 USB isn't even in image quality, but other aspects (OS support, install).

But I'd have to be desperate to eat a cricket, and no way will I eat a turd/feces.

Before you jump right into ATI AIW (steak), you must realize that you're limited to only using WinXP. Some people don't want to do that, and so those other two quality options are available in our post-XP world. And again, even I do that, on some Win7 video systems. AIW systems, more and more, are for serious folks who are willing to build dedicated XP capturing systems.

Yes, thanks, the dinner options.
Valuable info.

Steak preferred. I have no problems with a Windows-XP only machine. House is filled with machines and books.
The ATI 600 USB that we're exchanging (please see DMs) won't be worse in video quality, just a bit more tinny for audio?
Yes, I have no reference grade speakers at the moment. Would not matter for audio sake.
