Hey all

Debating whether this belongs in the camcorder section.

But heres what I am working with anyway

Windows XP sp3 1.2 GB RAM
Sharp VL - A10 Camcorder - 8mm tape
Dazzle 100 hardware
Pinnacle studio 12 software

Fairly new to pinnacle, and since my recording are on 8mm video tape I dont really hold out much hope of achieving a good dvd output.

The problem I'm having at the moment is when I capture using DV the audio lags and the video is in fast motion.

A reason perhaps for this is that my camcordor only has one audio input and therefore one audio feed to the dazzle. Every time I capture, Pinnacle lets me know by popping up a notification that a valid input signal is missing. I don't think this is the cause for audio lag and video ffwd, as it seems to work ok when capturing AVI and MJPeg. Or maybe it is the cause

As I said I'm not too familiar with the settings on Pinnacle and have been experimenting.

I can't find anything specific on this problem and was wondering if anybody might have any ideas.

Recommended settings for best DVD Output through either AVI ~MJPeg, DV or Custom.

Really appreciate any help at all.

Thanks
