Capture stops

During capture from camcorder, the capture stops at 2 minutes of recording.
I've tried the S-Video and A/V; both do the same thing. Any input regarding
this problem?
Thx - Mike

WMM2 can be configured to capture video up to a given time limit (the screen
where you start the capture) - any chance this is what is giving you your 2
minute problems?

Thinking sideways here... a long shot nonetheless. Or some basic hardware
issue...

Well, I set it to 8 hrs this time and it went 2min20secs before stopping.
It's not actually "stopping" but "freezing up" the video capture while the
program still runs. It might be a h/w issue.

What's the camcorder brand and model, and what capture device are you using?

Camcorder is Sony DCR-TRV130 NTCS, capture device is Hauppauge WinTV PVR PCI
II (26xxx); as far as I can tell.

Ok, you have a Hauppauge TV capture device (so do I) - but that is probably
not relevant. And a Sony Camcorder - so how do you connect the Camcorder to
the PC?

USB (1.1 or 2.0)? Firewire? Or?

Thinking again - you are probably trying to hook up the camcorder to some
socket on the Hauppauge (eg S-Video) Hold on ///

You meant DCR-TRV130 NTSC - not NTCS

Look here http://www.sonydigital-link.com/DIM.../D8/D8.asp?l=en

Maybe you should be using the USB or Firewire capability?

I agree with Max... you should be capturing from a digital8 camcorder using
a firewire connection... the Sony manual calls it iLink.
