Any obvious things I'm doing wrong here? I have the latest WDM and display
drivers for the Personal Cinema GeForce 4 MX440, running on AMD 2Ghz WinXP
with all updates.

When I capture in from my composite source, I get dropped frames (about 1 in
5) at anything over about 8 fps. Have tried both Adobe Premiere 6 and
Windows Movie Maker.

The device is, I think, capable of 768 x 576 at 25fps.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

No, have defragged.
Have tried uncompressed and all possible combinations.
Have latest drivers for absolutely everything.

Any other ideas? Thanks.

Ok have changed to version 1.9.1 of the WDM driver and it's a bit better
now, however I still get 1 dropped frame in every 275 or so. Any ideas for
final refinement?

I'm running in a clean install of Windows XP with nothing else running.

Thanks.
