Capturing with VirtualDub
When i open VirtualDub I go to Capture AVI mode, setting the output file, connecting to my Hauppauge USB PVR2 tuner and makes sure it's connected, then I set tuner to 72 where I know there's a channel. But when I click Capture Video it says:
"Unable to start video capture." - Why? |

I don't really do anything else
Double click VirtualDub.exe File > Capture AVI F2 > d:\test_capture.avi Device > 1 Hauppauge WinTV PVR USB2 Encoder (DirectShow) (status bar says Connected to capture device: 1 Hauppauge WinTV PVR USB2 Encoder (DirectShow)) Video > Tuner... > Channel=72 Country=45 Input=Cable F5 > "Unable to start video capture." |

Sorry to revive this old thread, but that assertion is FALSE.
I found this post because I'm experiencing the same problem with a Leadtek WinFast PVR2000, and still haven't found the problem. It happens randomly. I also have a Avermedia TV Capture 98 and a Happuage 900H USB stick, which is hybrid angalog/dual, and I have succesfully captured with them and Virtualdub, but can only capture in one of each dozen of attemps with CX2388x (WinFast PVR2000). I have a dual system which can boot in Windows 7 64 bit or in Windows XP 32 bit. It happens in both OS. Last edited by Perepandel; 31st August 2012 at 13:15. |

Sometimes I've had such problems, but the solution was the order of doing things. It might work in Dscaler on first booting but not a second time, or if another program tried to use it. Think of it as a problem that registers are left in a messed up state, or that a resource is stuck in use. So I had to use programs freshly or in a certain order. Try experiments along that way, from a fresh reboot.
