Okay buddy, need some more information here. Just what quality and size an format are you trying to capture? My computer is a p3 550 and I can only really capture mpeg1 at 352x240 IBP. When I try to capture mpeg2, i drop about 30% of the frames, and the recording ceases to be video and audio and just is audio. So, my recommendation to you would be that you can just capture mpeg1 files. But don't lose heart! There is a chance that you can jack the bitrate up to 4 or 5 mb/s (i do). Okay, then take that file and use tmpgenc to make it standard. I actually demux the file, and only re-encode the video to standard, and then mux the new video with the old audio and everthing is good.

Do you have the same problem capturing from ANY source? i.e. TV, Video, DVD, home video...??

I had a problem VERY similar to this while trying to capture the Star Trek Voyager series premier to VCD... I got ATI involved and MS involded thinking it was OS/Drivers/Hardware problems and finally realized that it was Macrovision at work. I had a thin line across the top of the capture when I could see the video and the rest of the screen was totally b0rked. Then it rewind/FF/catch up with itself all of a sudden and play for a sec then do it again...

Try capturing something NOT copyrighted and see if your problems don't go away...
