Video Source Setting Won't Always 'Stick'

[reg2222]

Eventually I can get it to work but sometimes only after many (10-20) tries. Very frustrating since it is possible - just not reliable.

When I am in Capture (Visual Studio SE DVD ver 10) and go to Options - Video and Audio Capture Settings and try and select S Video (default is Composite), it seems to take but after clicking OK and the Change Field Order window pops up and does its thing, it frequently will not 'take'. I repeat numerous times until it does take so it is possible.

Can anyone direct me to the configuration file that holds the default settings for this so I can set S Video as the default instead of Composite. Then (I assume) the problem wouldn't matter.

Thanks.

Welcome to the forums,

Well there's probably more than one file that you would need to alter this information. I don't know which single one would take care of that. The "ini" files are found in the Ulead.dat folder. There's several of them in there, and several that are responsible for various capturing procedures. Alter them at your own risk.

It is nothing short of a miracle that you can get such an old version to even run on a Win7 PC. VS 10 + needed a special patch to run on Vista, and you're using a SE version, which is a trimmed down freebie.. Don't expect things to continue to work smoothly, OR if it does, please let us know how...

Hello reg2222,

Like what Ron said, VideoStudio SE DVD ver 10 is not compatible to Windows 7, because it's an old program which was created even before Windows Vista was being developed. But if you are interested in using the latest version, you can download the trial of VideoStudio Pro X3 which is fully compatible with Windows 7 and you can download it from http://www.corel.com/trials.
