VideoOh! DVD and Movie Mill

[bud1tig2]

Does anyone know how to get Movie Mill to recognize the Adaptec VideoOh! DVD USB 2.0?


MyDVD works, but has no controls for capturing bit rate etc,

Don't know if this'll help but I have same as you.

If you are getting "source not found" or similar message, you may not know that MovieMill only recognises the Adatptec once a video is playing.

So, start the vcr playing a bit before where you want to capture, click the movie camera icon on Movie Mill -you should then see the source video playing - and get ready to click capture start button where you need to.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it still does not work. I am trying to use Movie Mill 2.0 build 260 USB. I tried both Composite1 & Composite2 input.

I tried the same thinng with may Videoh! DVD and Movie Mill would not recognize it. Maybe the Videoh! is using a different chip than the older units. I just purchased my a week ago.

Oh, sorry that didn't help. Mine says version 2.0, but in properties it shows- 2.0.271.0

and for "build" it says "release", no number. I wonder if that makes a difference? I've had mine for months now & working fine - once I realised I needed to start a tape running first.

I know I have read others saying do not update either the card drivers or MovieMill, or it causes problems. So, I never have.

I got my version of moviemill from a link provided in the Adaptec Videoh DVD review right on this site. https://www.videohelp.com/capturecards.php?CaptureCardRead=Adaptec%20Videoh!%20DVD&Search=Search More info is there, if you haven't seen it yet. Good luck.

I am having a similar issue. However, the new version on this VideOH! product is called "DVD Media Center USB 2.0 Edition" and the only available driver is version 1.1.0.2220, dated 05/16/2003. The device appears in Hardware Manager listed as Adaptec AVC-2310 USB Device, under the Sound, Video & Game Controllers heading.

Media Mill doesn't recognize any capture device on my system, no matter which version I try to use.

Just so we're all on the same page.

Make sure you have the latest version of Dirext X.

Well, I solved my problem by purchasing a Canopus AVDC-100. All the raves are well-deserved. It really makes the Adaptec product look like a POS.
