I am trying to copy 8mm video camera tapes to DVD.When using Cyber link POWER VCR II, the video is fine before I hit record, but, when I record, the picture goes black and white with red and blue "blotches" all over the screen. If I hit search for a second on the camera, it clears up the picture untill the next scene, then it goies to shit again!!!!! Any ideas as I have a mate with a different capture card, different camera (both 10yrs old)but same problem.Tried changing profiles to mpeg 1,2,excelent,basic etc. but no difference. Thanks in advance.
First off I wouldn"t use "Cyberlink power VCR" because the Program is very Old (About 4+ years old) and it"s Quality isn"t that good and It doesn"t keep Very Good Audio and Video sync.... I would suggest you try maybe "InterVideo winDVR 3.0" as it is one of the Better Mpeg-2/DVD Capture programs.... What Type of Capture Card are you useing ??? And what are your PC"s specs?? Cheers
Computer specs: P-4 2.6ghz Win XP Gigabyte motherboard 512 DDR 333 Ram 40g master & 80g slave hdd Geforce 5200 fx 128gb video card On board sound V-Gear My TV 2 Radio capture card I'll do a search for InterVideo winDVR 3.0 and see if I can download it. I thought it might be a compatability problem from the camera. As I said, my mate has a similar problem using different card and software?? I tried calling Asiamajor Inc(V-Gear) and they were bloody useless. Thanks
