VS X4 capture no video only audio

Post by diablo »

im trying to capture in VS x4 but i only get audio. no video is coming up on my capture screen but if i record, the recording will show video... video just wont show up in the capture screen inside VS x4.. i read where people couldnt see video if they were trying to capture DV and some were told to get windv or someother program to get the video but im not trying to capture dv.. im trying to capture video with my tv capture card, avertv hybrid volar max.. it captures the audio thru the vd x4 capture screen but not the video although if i do a recording both audio and video will play in the mpg.. why cant i see the video in the capture screen?

With TV capture cards and associated devices, we always recommend that you use the software which came with the device for capturing. Too many of these devices are tweaked to only work -- or work better -- with their own software. Some device managers are also known to refuse to reveal the "secrets" of their devices to software manufacturers like Corel for commercial reasons.

So you capture with the software which came with the device, and then open the captured video in Video Studio for editing/authoring.

so close too getting it working. I guess Ill have no choice but to use the software the tuner came with but if i really want to capture using VS x4 Ill have to capture without seeing the video part in the capture screen. albeit, once the video is captured the video does play in the saved recorded mpg video... In the future, If there are any workarounds to get the video showing in the X4 capture screen. please do tell!


thanks
