Canopus ADVC 100 Firewire DUMB question

[Tolwyn]

Quick dumb question.

Does this ONLY capture in DV format?
Or would this device be recognized by VirtualDub as a Capture Source?

I've not been able to get a DV codec working in Windows 7 Professional. But could easily encode to Huffy or whatever else, if this device is supported by Vdub.

GAH! I picked the wrong forum, I'm so sorry.

It doesn't 'capture' at all, just transfers the DV video file to your computer. You can't change that.

Try using WinDV for the transfer.

As far as I know, it only does DV output over Firewire.

Which DV codec(s) have you tried to get working under Win7? Try downloading and installing the trial version of Corel's VideoStudio Pro; it supports DV-over-Firewire from the ADVC100. (Or at least it does on my machine.)

Cedocida. Free and very good. And, yes, use WinDV.

Actually, you CAN use virtualdub to capture with an ADVC. Well it just worked with my 300

Yes, but of course it's just taking in the DV stream from the ADVC via DirectShow.

That is what they want to do !!! if you know how teach them how to do it !

Who, the OP? That's not what the OP wants. OP wanted to know whether this only captures in DV format. The answer is yes. So his queries about VDub capturing to Huffy are invalid.
