    I need to make VirtualDub receive NTSC and have my computer output the same. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

    My first thought was to make VD have a custom video format of 320x240 and have my computer have a 640x480 screen resolution, but I haven't had the chance to test this. Am I on the right track, or way off base?

    What do you mean "receive NTSC" ? Are you using Vdub for
    video capture ?

    I can't comment if you're "way off base", because I haven't any idea of
    what you're trying to do.

    Yes, I'm using it for video capture. I'm running an emulator on one computer and, using an Adaptec Gamebridge, am recording the gameplay on another computer. The problem is that the display on VD looks like... well, I recorded it, so look for yourself:

    I asked someone who has the same setup, only working, on what the problem was, and he replied:

    "That sort of thing can happen when you have a PAL/NTSC mismatch. Make sure your computer is outputting NTSC and virtualdub is set to receive NTSC."

    So now I'm trying to figure out how to do that.

    Well the output from the gamebridge is sent to the PC via USB
    cables? I doubt if the problem is ntsc/pal related.
    Doesn't the device come with drivers/software and instructions which
    describe how it's stream should be captured?
