Has anyone gotten this combination to work??? I'm stuck with firewire because I'm running a laptop (my computer specs are fairly complete in my profile) and I capture to an external firewire HD. It seems like voodoo, sometimes I can get VirtualVCR to capture, sometimes it doesn't work at all, most of the time it just crashes my system. I've tried all kinds of combinations of disabling/enabling devices (like the order that I turn on my firewire devices, etc) and although I'm running XP SP1, my systray is clean and I've disabled all the processes I can and still be safe. Any ideas????

Also, would love to use Huffy to compress, but everytime I try to use the codec I get an error message in VVCR, so I have to go uncompressed.

I don't have a TV card, I'm just capturing directly from VCR->Pyro->VVCR->disk. Do you NEED a TV card to use VVCR?

I'd really like to get this running because the few captures that I've been able to complete are fantastic, full NTSC resolution, no dropped frames and look great. VVCR is the only cap program I've found that looks this good --- when it works! Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Will
