Hi all,
I am a total newbie at capturing DV from my camcorder and purchased Pinnacle Studio card and software to do the job. I can download video onto my hard drive as an avi and can playback trough Pinnacle preview window with no problem. However if I try to play the avi through Windows Media Player 7.1, BS Player or any other media player for that matter, both video stop and start intermittently and then freeze up - they just will not play. I want to put the avis on CD at avi or comparable quality and give to friends etc so they can watch on their computers. I would be grateful if anyone could tell me what I might be missing or doing wrong. For example is there a program I could use to convert these avis into DivX?
Many thanks,
Mogre1.
