Hello.
How may I know whether my capture device drivers are WDM or VFW?

I have the AVerMedia EZMaker USB 2.0.

Thanks.

Try this:

Go to Control Panel -> System -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager -> Sound, video and game controllers -> Legacy Video Capture Devices -> Properties tab. What do you see?

This is what I see on my laptop:

Cross posted in three places, in violation of Forum rule 8.

Please post followups to the thread in the Capture forum, which is probably the most appropriate place for this discussion.

Got the same results. It seemd that my drivers are WDM as well.
Does the newest Virtual Dub support WDM drivers natively? I saw something about Direct X drivers, is it the same?

Thanks.
