dropped frames
I have a new computer, Dell GX270 2.4 Ghz, 1 gig extended ram nvida 3dforce MX400 dual head video card, Audigy sound card with Vegas 7. Everything has the lastest updates, drivers etc. No IRQ conflicts;. I’ve checked that DMA is enabled. I’ve tried different decks and camera as a source. different cables. I’ve run vid cap as a stand alone program. I still get 162 dropped frames in a 15 sec capture. at 17.4FPS. I’ve tried capturing to 3 different drives; an internal seperate drive from my C drive, a firewire 400 and a firewire 800 same results.
Now here is the fun part. I installed the Ulead Studio 8 lite that came with the card and it captures video perfectly. Vegas will then play the video with no problems.
Any suggestions? -

See if it helps to reduce the video window size during capture.
Where is the 17.4 fps coming from?

Gary, thanks for the response. the 17.4fps comes from the message after I stop the capture. it also shows a data rate of 1.99MB/sec.
Are you talking about the window size in preview? If so, I had it on “auto” and tried reducing preview to half. That made no difference at all same problem, same rate etc. -

The video window in the Capture application during capture.

Changing the size of the window does nothing to help.
Is there a pre-capture buffer setting in capture that could be enlarged? I’ve had audio programs that that has helped in the past -
An update, I tried un-checking base DV resolution decoding by preview window size. That had no effect. I reset it back to being checked
