I'm using Vista Ultimate x64 and want to capture a small sound bite from a MP3 track to use as a 'phone ring tone, but i can't figure out how to do it. Can anyone advise me which program i need or if there's something in Vista to do the job?
This problem is all over the web, on dozens of forums, and nobody has ever had a satisfactory answer.
Why is it, that we cannot capture HDV video via FireWire with Vista? If I have a HDV tape in my camera (A canon xh-a1), and I turn it into VCR mode, Vista makes a chime, but the autoplay does not pop up. I cannot capture using Premiere or Sony Vegas. It says there's no camera connected.
If I have a regular DV tape in my camera, and I hit play on that tape so the signal changes to regular DV, then windows chimes and the autoplay box pops up! I can then capture regular DV with Premiere or Vegas.
I didn't buy the $3000 HDV camera to capture standard-def though. It's why I also built my Vista box as well. There is a third party program called HDVSplit that allows you to capture HDV with no preview.
Adobe, and Sony, and Canon, say that it's a problem with the Vista fire wire drivers. Asus also points at Microsoft's fire wire drivers for Vista.
The question is: Why hasn't Microsoft issued updated firewire drivers in the last 3 or 4 years? This problem is widespread. Google it! It's everywhere.
If anyone knows of any third-party FireWire drivers that fix the problem, I'm all ears.
I just bought the Plextor AV200U, and it wasn't supported on my 64-bit Vista platform. So my question is: has anyone found a really good video capturing device in a tiny format? If it works with Premiere Pro then that's even more fantastic.
I have a problem with the the capture of my video into Windows Movie Maker. I have now recaptured the video again after ensuring that all othe programmes on the computer are disabled, however the problem still persists. During the actual capture process the video runs at normal speed and there are no fluctuations in the speed during that process. I do notice that the capture display on the computer tends to stop and start from time to time, but I believe this is normal and does not indicate a problem.
Once the capture is complete and I play back scenes from my capture, then the speed of the playback varies all the time, sometimes running faster than original capture and again slower at other times. I am sure that I have read somewhere that this is not abnormal during the video editing phase. However the problem arises in that once you publish the video these speed variations are written into the published video and subsequently transfered to the DVD.
Im looking for a (hopefully cheap) video capture card, but here is the thing.
1. It needs to be vista64 compatible, and 2. Needs to be able to interface to a hi8 camcorder (aka s-video and rca audio)
I dont care if its an internal card, or a simple usb cable, as long as i can capture my soon to be deteriorated hi8 data. Im having trouble finding anything compatible with vista let alone vista64.
I have been wanting to buy a video capture device to put my VHSs on my computer and have decided the time is now. I have looked at the Dazzle Video Creator Platinum and am happy with the reviews but it doesn't have 64 bit drivers. So would do you guys recommend to me? If I have to I can buy the dazzle and just use it with my old xp machine but I would like one that I can use with my vistax64. I guess a tv tuner would also work but what software would I use to record and seperate one video stream in to two files?
Windows Vista Home Premium, 32 bit, SP 1. Windows Live Mail. I am completely NEW in this particular subject, and I hope I can explain my problem intelligently enough. I am using Debut Video Capture Software, by NCH Software, to capture You Tube videos. That is not the problem. My problem is sending them out as attachments. Output formats available are : avi, asf, wmv, mpg, 3gp, mp4 or mov. So far, and I have not tried all formats , mp4 is the one with the smallest size, small enough to e-mail as attachment. But it has to be played in RealPlayer. My recipients have Windows Media Player, and wmv format is too big in size, about almost 10 times larger than mp4.
after reinstalling vista ive tried redownloading Acer eRecovery what came installed on my pc. but keep getting this error message Capture.jpg - ImageHost.org
I have Vista preminm with 3 gig of ram. I installed Dazzle video creator platinum. I installed reccommended updates from Pinnacle. Whenever I start Instant DVD recorder and select Dazzle 170 as the capture device I get the blue screen and it restarts my puter,EVERY TIME. Does anyone know how to fix this.
I have tried two different programs. The vid starts to capture, showing the preview, then everything stops (preview wise and capture wise). Video drivers? Bad fire wire?
I have an analog capture card, and am wondering what the optimal specs (frame rate, resolution) for capturing video would be, both for S-Video and the Red-White-Yellow cables.
