I recently got the Leadtek card and have played around with several capture and encode apps. I ran into a problem yesterday performing the following task:
1. Captured 2 hours of VHS using Virutal VCR at 480 x 480 and the huffy codec. Obviously, this resulted in a HUGE AVI file.
2. I tried encoding to the low-resolution DVD template using the TMPGEnc project wizard in the hopes that I could fit mega amounts of capture on one DVD+R. Considering that TMPGEnc told me it was going to take 9 hours to encode, I let it run overnight. Well, at some point, it apparently froze and caused Win XP to reboot. Can anyone help with some ideas as to why this happened? Any tricks to making it go faster?
What application setups are Leadtek users running? I have tried capturing using the bundled WinPVR software and capturing straight to MPEG-2. The audio-video synch was AWFUL! Any help here?
I'm at a loss. I have tried the "How To" guides but they all seem to include VirtualDub and I don't want to mess with downloading other drivers just to make that work. There has got to be a way with the setup I have.
Thanks in advance.....

If you got UL Studio 6 with your card you can capture, edit, author and burn without ever leaving that app. Also iuvcr works very nice for capture with huffy and then go to UL Studio 6 for everything else. Works nice and it's pretty simple.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm always hesitant to use the bundled software because I figure there's something better out there.
Out of curiosity, have you used other apps and compared them to ULead? Have you had much luck capturing with the WinPVR software? My MPEG-2 captures are horribly out of synch. -
I didn't care too much for Winpvr but the two that impress me are UL Studio 6 and iuvcr. If you have them and 2000 or xp you shouldn't need anything else. I think iuvcr is about 19.00 usd and you already have ULS 6. I'd say you've got her made.
