Overlay? How do I turn it off to achieve a higher resolutio

[born2rn]

I just bought a Hauppauge WinTVGO FM Radio capture card and I'm finding it impossible to capture at anything higher than 320x240 -- the default resolution for the card.

The following was listed on this site under the "capture card" list concerning this card:

>>>Easy to get working, stable drivers for all platforms including NT4.0. Must turn off overlay for full frame captures. Has no trouble capturing in any resolution.

Workaround for no overlay on my PC. Set format to RGB24 compression ( Pic / huffyuv / .. ) and turn on preview. No lost frames for hours of captures even with preview on the whole time.

Software tested with Virtualdub / AVI_IO<<<

So I'm assuming that in order to capture anything above 320x240 I have to turn off the overlay on my pc. How do I do this? I downloaded Virtualdub and noticed that it had an option to enable or disable "overlay", but when I apparently disabled this function I still couldn't capture above the default listing...obviously I'm trying to capture at 640x480.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

born2rn,

You have to "force preview" for the capture card - you can set these in the Settings (or Properties) section of VirtualDub. You may also want to enable "Hide during capture" in the View(?) menupoint...

Anyway, try lower resolution first (e.g. 480x480).
