When I am trying to capture vhs via Virtual VcR it is creating video with a non zero start. So if I load the clip in Virtualdub it states that it assumes a non zero start.

If I load it in megui it states that it cannot decompress frame zero.

Is this something common with virtual vcr ? How do I get it to start at zero ?

I have tried it with different colorspaces RGB24 and yuy2. I am basically at a total loss of how it is doing it. Is anyone using a capture program that allows to use PicVideo format for capture is reliable and wouldn't have this error.

I have double checked myself against this guide http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/capture/capturing_VirtualVCR.html but seem to be line with all that it states.

Hi,

I've captured many times with VirtualVCR (YUY2 colorspace). Virtualdub complaints about non zero start but handles the clip flawlessly. I don't care much about this complaint then. VirtualVCR is my preferred tool to capture. All the rest I've tried suffered audio/video desynchronization.

I don't use megui, then I cant help about this problem. But opening avi files through avisynt usually cures it.

Good luck

If I create an avisynth script including a file captured from Virtual VCR and load it in VirtualDub it gives the same error as Megui - that it cannot decompress frame zero. It seems to be avisynth that cannot handle the VirtualVCR captures.

I like the simplicity of VirtualVCR as it still has all necessary config options but I cannot stop it capturing without the non zero start and as I want to use Avisynth this seems to be a prob, well for me anyway:).

Sadly, the link to get it is dead. (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=79023)

If you can't get it in any way, I have the .exe only, but I don't know what is the current status of the software and would like to hear from a moderator fist if I'm allowed to share it.

Found the answer sadly is very easy. I just needed to adjust the settings in the AV Sync Tab and select adjust stream offset and choose the sub option to Sync using streams offset.
