Dazzle DVC II/MovieStar 4.24 Problem

[omro]

Hi All,

I've a Dazzle DVC II and Movie Star 4.24 software on XP.

When I record things in VCD format, all is well. However, if I record in SVCD or DVD format, the recorder often just stops at a random place for no reason.

Does anyone know why this might be?

Also is there any better software out there for recording video? I remember reading a review of a freeware video capture software, but I forget the name. Is it better than MovieStar with this hardware?

Here's a forum I belong to and an outstanding resource for the DVCII:

Hint: Use forum search as the board isn't as active as it used to be, but there's a wealth of info still there from years ago.
