I'm trying to capture an analog video source (my vcr). I get a message that
says "The devise is currently in use. Close any other application that is
using the devise and try again". I'm not using any other application or
devise. When I hit "ok" I get a message saying: "The devise cannot be used at
this time because there has been an error when starting the devise'" What can
I turn off or change? Any adivise?
