Capturing from TV using Virtual Dub - help !

[logopro]

Hi all,

I have an ATI 8500DV, which I capture stuff from the TV with.

I tried the new version of Virtual Dub, and find the recording is very quick to start with it.... very neat.

How do I get it to tape a .avi move with standard frames per second as the ATI does ? .... Virtural Dub only has a setting for 15 frames per second, which makes all the video kind of choppy almost. I also note that the audio is not as clear as when I record using ATI's software .

any help appreciated.

Mark.

Go to Capture -> Settings, there you can enter your desired frame rate.
For audio, go to Audio -> Compression, select PCM 44,100 16 bit stereo or PCM 48,000 16 bit stereo if you're gonna convert it to DVD

If you go into the various settings, you can set the audio/framerate to the setting you want. Some trial and error will be involved before you find the 'perfect' setting. Then go into Capture > Preferences and save your settings.

VD_start_pro is a nice program that will let you timer-record using Virtualdub for those times that you are away from the computer.
