Slight problem with AverDVD EZMaker...

[VindicatorPrime]

Good Afternoon All!!

I have a slight problem with my Aver DVD EZ Maker PCI card...

It does a pretty good job except that there is a squiggly line at the top of the screen when I'm captruing VHS that resembles the kind of thing you'd get if you were messing with the tracking on a VHS tape.

I'm using the neoDVDstandard 4.0 software that came with it and even when I try doing it on Windows Movie Maker I get that same tracking line (for lack of a better term) on top of the capture screen which also shows up on the finished product.

I've tried switching RCA cables but I get the same results.

I have a Dell P4 with a 1.2Ghz processor and 256mb of ram.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Nothing wrong with the capture card IMO what you are seeing is called "Macrovision" copy protection. You will need a device to remove it like this one for example.

Can you post a screen cap of what you are talking about? It always helps to actually see what someone is trying to describe...you know, a picture paints a thousand words.

Have you tried using VirtualVCR to capture with? I have the same card as you and VirtualVCR works very well with it in my set-up. Of course, YMMV.
