Recording from VCR

[Guest]

Hi, I have a Pinnacle DC10 installed and have my VCR attached from scart to S-video input. I have all of the drivers installed. When I try to capture video in Windows Movie Maker I get an 'Unknown Error' message. My OS is XP Home. Any ideas please?

You need to use the pinnacle software that came with the card..

Thanks, but unfortunately the Pinnacle software that comes with the card is not compatible with XP and won't install. I have installed a file called DC10plus HardwareInstall_1028 in order to get the drivers installed. My PC now recognises the card. Is there any other capture software that is compatible with the DC10?

I don't know about whether they're compatible with the card but
PowerDirector Pro (from the makers of PowerDVD at www.cyberlink.com) and
WinDVD Creator (from the makers of WinDVD at www.intervideo.com) will both
capture analog video.

click the left hand "Gotchas" link, then scroll down
a topic. Markus has done some work on AVI_IO
specifically targeting the DC10, I suspect because
he has one...

Check the Pinnacle website for an update - strange the
card isn't compatible though....
