FX5900XT-VTD128 capture problem

Hi,
I read the many posts about capture problems but did not recognise my issues.
I just got FX5900XT-VTD128 and I am trying to get it to capture with WinDVD creator (bundled). WinDVD would start but then it would hang without listing any capture device.
I installed the latest WDM drivers from the nVidia site (2.20_wdm-vivo.exe)
Device manager list the following devices under sound, video and game controllers:
- nVidia WDM A/V Crossbar (12-2-2003)
- nVidia WDM Video Capture (universal) (12-2-2003)
The multimedia tab in control panel show the following under "devices"
under "Video Capture device" --> -Microsoft WDM Capture
After reading the posts, I suspected a WDM driver problem so I did the following:
1- removed both nVidia WDM devices from device manager
2- removed Microsoft WDM Capture from multimedia devices
3- removed nVidia WDM drivers with Driver Cleaner
I rebooted and confirmed that no nVidia WDM devices were present in Device manager and that no WDM capture device were present under multimedia capture devices.
I re-installed nVidia WDM driver 2.20 and rebooted. Windows plug and play recognised both nVidia WDM devices and installed drivers for it.
When I checked, both Device manager and Multimedia capture device were back as they were before the driver re-install yet WinDVD still hang when I click "capture" (Window is still alive, I can kill WinDVD manualy but I would then not be able to restart it without first rebooting).
I tried Flycap and VirtualVCR with no better result, they hang.
I am using Win98 SE on a Gygabyte GA-7N400-l motherboard with AMD Sempron 2400+ CPU and 512MB RAM. I have no other card in the PC.
I am using nVidia driver 66.94 from the file: "66.94_win9x_english.exe"
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

VCR capture FX5900XT VTD128

I have connected the vcr to the video in of the card using the RCA to S-Video connector supplied with the card. All drivers are installed including the capture drivers.
I can't find a way to capture (even see) the output from my vcr. Should this be possible and if so how?
There does not seem to be any tv tuning capability so how does the card know where to look for the signle? Or am I missing something in the driver install and should have a tv turner device?

You are confusing RF-in (or aerial input) with video-in (or TV-in). Cards with an inbuilt TV tuner, which your card lacks, have an RF-in socket into which one usually connects an aerial; and with the appropriate software one can search the RF spectrum for a TV station's broadcast frequency in the same way a radio is tuned to a particular radio station. The Video-in socket takes a different kind of signal and gets it direct from a video device. There is no tuning.
Get some video capture software. AmCap is pretty basic. Once installed select S-Video input from Options -> Crossbar, then select Options -> Preview and you should be getting a picture.

FX5900XT-VTD128 Board hangs with Mother board ASUS A7NE8X-E de Luxe and AMD Athlon 3000+

Hello Folks,
Please, I need your Help !!!
I bought a new FX5900XT-VTD128 Board and I am trying to install it in my new PC and it hangs the PC. It has just frozen it and I can not access neither the Bios or anything else. If I use my old Nvidia 4, everything works fine. My Mother board is a ASUS A7NE8X-E de Luxe and Monitor is a LG Flatron 17" Model: T710SH. The Bios of my PC is the last version liberated by ASUS version 1012 E. My Processor is an AMD Athlon 3000+ DDR 400 - The PC has 1GBDRAM (DDR - 400).
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem ?
Thanks,
Mario

Hi Kingfisher,
Thanks for your help.
But the Video Cards hangs in the Boot moment, before MS Windows XP comes in and the driver begins to act. My concern is a hardware conflict or a incompatibility or even hardware defect.
What kind of troubleshooting is ideal ?

Mario

FX5900XT-VTD128 vs RX9800PRO-TD128SP

Which card should I get?
FX5900XT-VTD128 or RX9800PRO-TD128SP
I'm gonna upgrade my computer to an AMD 64 3000+ on the K8N Neo2 Plantinum mobo and I'm not sure which vid card to get.
I currently play wwiionline which runs way better on the nvidia cards than the ATI cards but I'm also looking at getting half-life 2 which doesn't even list any nvidia products in their system reqs (just ATI cards).
I can't afford the 6800 or X800 so don't bother telling me to get those.
Any input is appreciated
Thanks

The biggest question is what you play and how much. If you mainly play WWIIOL then go Nvidia. If you play a wide variety of games the 9800 Pro may be a better choice.
That's my problem. I was planning on mostly playing wwiiol which is why I was gonna get the FX59000XT but I'm looking at picking up HL2 which highly recommends ATI over FX cards
Are the benefits of nvidia over ATI for wwiiol greater than the benefits of ATI over nvidia for HL2?
- If YES then nvidia is the better choice
- If NO then ATI is the better choice.

Capturing Problem with Sony TRV330

Capturing problem with Sony digital8 trv330.
I recently purchased the above camcorder from eBay for capturing old 8mm/Hi8 tapes for editing purpose. The camcorder set to A/V -> DV OUT connected with Firewire to my Power G4 and the Easy Setup was DV-NTSC. The playback on the capture window looks OK except there were no timecode in the Timecode Duration Field and the Current Timecode Field (both shown 00:00:00:00) during playback but there was timedoce in the camcorder viewfinder. When I click the Capture Now button, the capturing window show up with message “waiting for timecode ….”. I have to click “esc” to stop the capturing operation. I trash the Preferences and Ran the Disk Utility without success. I also tried the Easy Setup with DV-NTSC DV Converter as well as DV-NTSC 32Khz, nothing work.
My set up is: Mac Power G4 version 10.5.5/ F.C.E. 4.0.1/ QT7.5.5/ Startup 160 GB-89 GB available/ Scratch 350GB-277GB available. Folks, I need help. Thanks everybody.

Hi, I have a similar problem. I am trying to digitize my 8mm tapes (via firewire) using final cut express (4.0.1). Using easy setup I use DV-NTSC DV Converter and do capture now. I transfer the entire tape but notice the audio is out of synch with the video. This problem gets worse throughout the transfer process. When I use the esc to complete the transfer I get the error " The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape....." So after searching around it is recommended I change the audio sample rate to 32 kHz option. However, when I do this using easy setup and picking DV-NTSC 32kHz I cannot use capture now because I have no timecode and so the window comes up with the message "waiting for timecode". Since there is no timecode this option does not work. Any suggestions? Thanks, Dan

Audio Capture problem in Mac OS X 10.7.5 in Mac mini(in Silverlight)

I got a mac mini and upgrade Mac OS X 10.6.x --> 10.7.5.
However do not hearing the audio in Webpage using Silverlight.(10.6. version doing well)
So, I found the solve this problem, that is a audio capture problem.( My device does not supported Stereo audio data).
this is the source in audio capture using Silverlight code.
CaptureSource source = new CaptureSource()
                        AudioCaptureDevice = CaptureDeviceConfiguration.GetDefaultAudioCaptureDevice()
                    try
                        foreach (AudioFormat af in source.AudioCaptureDevice.SupportedFormats)
                            if (af.Channels == 1 && af.BitsPerSample == 16 && af.SamplesPerSecond == 8000)
                                source.AudioCaptureDevice.DesiredFormat = af;
                                break;
af.Channels is always af.Channel == 2(Stereo)
--- the question is
How can I caputure audio channel mono?
If couldn`t, how can I transfered audio capture data stereo to mono?
Please answer the question as soon as possible ^^

Capture Problems with Vista

While this problem is not specific to PE4, I am hoping someone will be able to help me.
I recently purchaed a Dell XPS desktop for video editing. I am unable to capture from my SONY HDRHC7 camcorder. The new computer runs on Vista Home Premium; my old computer (never had any capture problems before) runs on XP. According to Dell, Adobe, and SONY websites, there are no additional drivers that I need to capture video.
Has anyone had similar problems? And, if so do you have any advice? Thank you.

Hi Butch,
Here is your solution from the Read Me:
Windows Vista Compatibility
Windows Vista is a brand new operating system from Microsoft and has not been available in its final form long enough for Adobe to fully certify Lightroom for use on Vista. Adobe is working hard to finalize support or Vista as quickly as possible and will deliver appropriate software updates over the launch period. Lightroom 1.0 will install and run on Windows Vista but Adobe cannot guarantee the quality of the software experience until final testing is completed. Known issues for using Lightroom 1.0 on the Vista operating system are listed below:
Lightroom CD and DVD burning tools will not currently function
Importing files directly from a Camera or Card Reader may not function properly. Please
copy files to a local hard drive via the operating system before importing the files into
Lightroom
This may not be the answer you wanted but until the next release.........

Cannon GL2 - FCE 2 and iMovie Capture Problems

Hello Hello
I've read here that folks are having a tough time capturing with thier Cannon GL2. The device goes from NO problem to 'Can't intiate a capture because the device looses connectivity.
I tried to find a common denominator to this problem, and it seems this post regarding Quick Time Files can help? Yes?
Is this the main problem?
Anyway I'm also having connectivity issues with both iMovie 6 HD, and FCE 2
Just wondering if I should also follow the directions on this post and have my capture problems solved?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301852
BTW - I currently have Quicktime 7.0.4
Thanx

Hi Tom - Thanx for your reply!
Well, yes I have (as my profile indicates), a G5 1.8 Gig, currently with an external Lacie HD plugged in. I also have a Cannon GL2.
But before I go any further, and before I try those directions for cleansing certain Quick Time 7 Library Files, I think I figured out the dilemma.
This problem of GL2 recognition (from what I've read), is common for folks who have similar equipment, and a similar set-up as mine:
It seems (as I've also read here), that my G5 does NOT like 2 devices which require the same connection speed plugged into the 1394 Firewire Port at the same time - trying to share the same bus.
I confirmed this by disconnecting the Lacie FIRST - then booting back up - and WALLAH - the GL2 was certainly receoginzed both in iMovie 6 HD, and FCE 2!
I also further resolved the issue by buying a 'cheaper' Cannon Camcorder - the ZR500.
Now I can actually share the Lacie HD in the Fire Wire Port with this slower connection speed camcorder. And a further benefit is giving my GL2 a rest when it comes to 'capture only'
Does all this make sense?
If so, perhaps I've already discovered stuff that other folks already know ...
Thanx
Mike

Premiere Pro CS5.5 Batch Capture Problems

Hi,
I'm sorry for the repost, but the older questions I can find on this topic won't allow me to reply and they were never answered (last post several months ago).
I'm having the batch capture problem with Premiere Pro CS5.5. Capture with device control works great when single capturing. When I log clips and attempt to batch capture, though, I get the "capture failed: device not found" error in my capture log. I have checked through the FAQ and the complete premiere manual on batch capturing. I've set my device (still using a Canon XL1) and even checked the video size...it matches that of my project (someone on another forum mentioned that this could be an issue). I have had no luck.
Could anyone tell me if this issue has been resolved, or redirect me to a resolution?
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Steve

I have encountered this problem if the current tape position is beyond the last recorded point when you start the batch capture or if any "OUT" points are beyond the last recorded position or if the capture spans any unrecorded portions of the tape. I always thought it was my camera but maybe it is a PPro issue.

ZIU timecode/capture problems

This is issue we've been struggling with for a couple months now, originally thinking that it was an FCP version problem. Now we have been running FCP 5.1.2, Tiger, and QT all at their latest versions still no improvment.
The problem is we shoot a tape with our SONY HDV-Z1U and log the clips in FCP. When we go to batch capture many of about 25% of all these clips have capture problems. Final Cut detects timecode breaks and captures 2,3,4, sometimes 15 versions of these labeling them clip, clip-1, clip-2, etc....
You can actually see these wierd glitches and jumps on the camera LCD and on the FCP capture window. Sometimes the camera will rewind itself over and over trying to find the proper IN on the tape.
It seems like someone out there has had to run across this issue because this is such a common camera and such a common task. I'm almost worried that it's a camera problem and I don't even know where I would go to ask about something like that. I have not been albe to find any documentation that this model camera has TC problems.
Please, help or point me in the right direction it must just add a couple years to my life!!!
Thanks.

I have a ZU1 and I occasionally encounter this problem, but it's usually one clip out of say 25 or 30 on a given tape. I'm never sure what causes the problem and if I simply skip the problem clip I can sometimes go back and digitize just that one last clip.
I do know the ZU1 seems to need plenty of pre-roll in the front of the tape, but I'm assuming that's not the problem. You're using new, high quality tape, correct? Have you tried a simple head cleaning on the ZU1.

Is there going to be a Solution for the Capture Problem?

I've noticed that it is not only me but Final Cut Pro is not capturing video properly, it should not be so hard to capture from my camcorder(PV-DV51), when I hit log and capture the program just quits, after reinstalling, deleting preferences, the Firewire dock is able to see the camera, I can capture with IMovie for crying out loud! so the only question left, is do I have to upgrade Quicktime 7 player to the full version? because I did not find the upgrade in final cut studio package so do I have to purchase separately?
Thanks for the help

"The capture problem" is not, AFAIK, striking any number of folks. At least I've not heard of it. If you're running Final Cut Studio 5, there's not a separate serial - it's a gestalt thingie upon install.
FCP uses QuickTime to do its capturing (iMovie does not). You might try reinstalling QuickTime (don't skip any steps). Go to /Library/Receipts. Trash all QuickTime related .pkg files (Don't worry, you're only deleting receipts so that a full install will take place). Go to http://www.quicktime.com/ and download the latest installer and run it. Reboot.

Patrick

Newly encountered capture problem

I have a frustrating capture problem that just cropped up in a system that worked close to flawlessly in the past.
Aluminum G4 powerbook, 10.4.11, 1GB
FCE 2.0.3
External hard drive: Mercury Elite Pro FW800 on powerbook FW800 bus
Camera: Canon ZR45 attached via FW400 on a PCMCIA card FW bus
In the past (i.e. about a year ago) this system has worked almost flawlessly (i.e. 1 hour captures from tape, no problem)
In the past few days I have tried to use this system, and everything works fine for 5 minutes (i.e. the camera is recognized, I initiate capture now, it writes a file). Then at 5 minutes, the disk starts making a rhythmic click at about 1/sec and FCE freezes capture. (image frozen on screen). The tape keeps going. If I hit "esc", nothing happens. I get the whirling rainbow of doom, and nothing I can do will allow me to escape. The disk keeps ticking, FCE keeps ignoring the esc. If I attempt force quit and to unmount the disk, I have to keep doing it over and over. FCE even after force quit returns, as does the disk even though in theory, it has been trashed. After a few minutes of continually force quitting FCE and unmounting the disk, things settle down. But none of the captured material is usable ("is not a movie file") in general.
As I said, this is the same configuration of interfaces, disks, computer and camera that I have used without hitch in the past.
Oh, I also used the disk utility to check the disk and it says it doesn't need repair.
This is very frustrating, because it took me about a year of fiddling with different disks and interfaces before I got a system that could reliably capture onto my powerbook, and now it no longer seems to work.
Does anyone have any insights? Many thanks in advance.

Thank you for your response. I checked and it is Mac OS Extended. As far as the actual drive manufacturer, I can't figure this out from anything on the case or in the About this Mac info (posted below). It is about 2 years old, and has not been used that much. I guess it depends on what "that much" means. I transfered 18 hours of DV to it over a month period, and then wrote out 18 disks worth of qt files and dvd files to another drive. When I run "verify disk" it says "passed verification".

No Games CD in my FX5900XT-VTD128?

Just bought a new FX5900XT-VTD128 from NewEgg here in the US. Got 2 cds with the card: a Drivers/Utils disk and a WinDVD Creator disk.
From the MSI web site, it would appear that 3 full games and 14 trials are missing from the box.
Was I supposed to get another CD or 3? How would I go about getting these?
Thanks,
Michael

Excellent point, Sonofabob. Yes, I did get the VIVO version, and I didn't look at the pictures of the includeds. Instead, I compared the model name to the info on the MSI site, and I didn't think that MSI would list one thing... but Newegg would sell it differently.
To be fair, Buy.com also doesn't mention any games software in its product listing. But reviews like http://www.bit-tech.net/review/317/3 show stacks of cds, and some stores (like SuperWarehouse, http://www.superwarehouse.com/MSI_FX5900XT_128MB_Video_Card/FX5900XT-VTD128/pi/362395) also imply that the games come with the card (Btw, no connection with superwarehouse, could be a total scam, just happened to pop up in a search)
I guess I don't really need the games... But if MSI implies that the games come with the card (http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=FX5900XT-VTD128&class=vga) then I expect to see them.
But yes, the model number on the web site is MS-8937-040, while my box says -070. Perhaps -070 means "no games"?
Thanks to you all for suggestions and help.
Michael

FX5900XT-VTD128 is it 256bit memory buss or 128bit?

I looked and looked for a simple table of technical specs, but haven't had much luck. I suspect that the FX5900XT-VTD128 memory buss is only 128bit, but haven't found information one way or the other. Just looking to buy the right FX5900XT.

Thanks Assaf .. I would have felt a little more warm and fuzzy if you had added the words "memory buss" in your response. Hopefully I can assume that's what you meant. Please pardon my OCD.
