I've just taken up capturing analog video again. As I don't have as much time as I have HD space I'm planning to save it all to disk and edit it later.

I've installed MSU and Lagarith lossless codecs. But when I set the Colorspace to YUY2 and capture the video it doesn't seem to be YUY2 but RGB. I'm really clueless.. I've made an avs script like this

DirectShowSource("captured file.avi").info

But when I open it in virtual dub it displays "RGB" as the colorspace.

Clues anyone? I really need to know that I'm actually saving the raw videocapture lossless WITHOUT converting it to RGB or any other colorspace.

a. try avisource
b. check lagarith compression dialog, untick 'always suggest rgb as output'
