Yes, I know old piece of hardware...

Is anyone on this forum still using it with W95/98?

I don't have config troubles but still a lot of questions...

System: (yes, the Buz does work with newer systems!)

Great! So I can start asking those silly questions:

Do you (or are you able to) use nonstd capture resolutions in VDUB? (ex 480*576 or 400*300)
When not using one of the std res - 720*576 or 352*288 - it drops
frames like hell in my PAL-world...

Do you capture in MJPEG, RGB24, YUV or something else?

Are you able to capture in 720*576 25fps when not using MJPEG? If i use higher capture res than 352 or 360 * 288 it drops
frames like hell with any compression codec...

Is there an new driver besides V1.3?

Questions...questions...

Any input appreciated!

Manuel.

I still use mine. Get great quality captures using AVI_IO in Full PAL (720x576) or half PAL (352x288). Only downside is the disc space. :cry:

I use the Morgan MJPEG codec, as I had a lot of crashes with the Buz ones.

I have not succesfully captured with non-standard resolutions or without MJPEG.

As far as I remember I am using 1.3 drivers - not aware of any later ones. Win2K/XP drivers would be nice so that I could update my OS!

Cheers,
Bill
