When I go to capture mode in VS 8 I get the message below;
"Failed to initialize the video capture plug-in. Another program may be using it or the file has been moved. Failed to open the driver"
[15200:43:3] [15023;4;2]
I connect to a Sony Handycam which runs the MicroMV format. Download from this camera has worked before.
I have reinstalled the program with no use - I can not figure out how to solve this problem.
Anyone who knows how to fix this one?

Hello,
I have the same kind of problem. Here is the question I posted. But nos solution yet...
I have UVS 8. After a few problems in the beginning, the program finally worked. I did not use it for a few months. Now I cannot capture anymore. UVS recognizes my camera (Sony TRV900E). I changed the capture module and choosed others, like Ulead Direct Show (sorry I do not know the exact terms in english : my program is in french). Moreover, I cannot use anymore the project VSP I had already saved. I can open it, I hear the soundtrack but receive no image. On the contrary, when I view the clips included in UVS (those under Video, on the right side of the screen), it works.
I receive such messages (I translate from french) :
Impossible to switch to capture mode. Check if your video capture pilot works properly. Impossible to previsualize.
(15200 : 33 : 6)
(15023 : 4 : 2)
Launching of video capture module failed. Another program uses it or the file has been removed.
Opening of the pilot failed.
(15200 : 43 : 3)
(15023 : 4 : 2)
I have no solution after weeks of searching... Can anybody help me ?
I have screen prints of the messages but cannot post them of this forum.
Sorry for my broken english.

Hi,
My sympathies,
What eventually worked for me was to go to Tools and then "Change Capture plug-in". What had happened to me was that I had captured analog video and somehow the settings from this project would not reset automatically. When I chose the right plug-in which in my case was "MICRO-MV" it worked.

capture impossible
hello,
Thanks a lot for your kind answer. I tried to change he plug-ins (I choosed each of the 4 or 5 plug-ins ; mine should be Ulead Direct Show) : the problem remains.
In fact, I have now the same kind of problem with Windows Movie Maker...
Enjoy your work with Ulead !

Capture impossible : solution !
I found a solution. I used "gspot codec information appliance" (free on the web). This tool analyzes all the codecs on your pc. It gives a diagnostic for all codecs on your pc. In my case, it said : file missing for DV Video Encoder/Decoder and Win Draw. On the microsoft site, I saw that these files are associated with DirectShow/DirectX. So I downloaded the newest version of DirectX 9.0c. And... the problem is solved.
Good luck
