Video Capture for Vista 64-bit?


Recommended Posts

I am looking for a video capture device with drivers for 64-bit Vista. I

would like to use it to capture video from my VCR that I can later burn to a

DVD. Does anybody know of such a device? I have not been able to find one for

64-bit Vista.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

I should add that I am using a laptop so I would be looking for something I

could connect to a USB 2.0 or IEEE 1394 port.

 

Thanks!

Canopus offers the AVDC-boxes, which convert analogue video to digital via

firewire. There is a few more manufacturers, but I always recommend the

Canopus, because they work good :-)

KWORLD DVD Maker USB 2.0 claims to have Vista 64 bit drivers. I got

one of their analog TV USB sticks as a Fry's freebie and it works

under X64.

Thanks for letting me know about this product. I ordered it and received it

today. I was able to get the video to work, but was totally unable to get the

software to recognize my audio. Several other features of the software were

unresponsive and unstable under Vista 64-bit. I think the next generation of

the PVR software will be needed to smooth things out. A sincere thanks -- it

was certainly worth trying.

 

Regards,

 

Kevin

Re: Video Capture for Vista 64-bit?

 

Hi, Cari.

 

Thanks for posting that! It motivated me to try again to get my

WinTV-HVR-1600 working for analog TV channels, as well as digital.

 

I downloaded the new MCE_CD_31G.ZIP and ran its Setup.exe. I was surprised

and disappointed that it finished installing so quickly. Looks like all

that really gets updated is the Infrared receiver driver. Then I saw that

the Installation Guide says it's for the 1600 "MCE Kit". That is, the board

that runs on MCE, not on Hauppauge's standalone application WinTV2000. The

connectors shown on that Installation Guide are different from the ones on

my hardware, which I bought in January, and which is the HVR-1600 with no

suffix. The MCE Kit apparently comes with a USB cable and a separate box

for the IR's remote control; my older card has a mini-jack to plug cable

directly into the card. The new IR32.exe software is for the new IR system,

not for my old one. So that part of my day was a disappointment.

 

But, in studying the old and new Installation Guides, I realized that the

OTHER coax input on my card is where I must plug in my antenna to pick up

analog (NTSC) channels. On the MCE card, both connectors are labeled "TV

Connector", but both have subtitles, too. One says "for Cable TV input";

the other says "for ATSC digital TV antenna". On my card, the first says

"TV Connector, for Cable TV; the other says "ATSC Digital TV connector".

I've been using this other input, which is for ATSC and receives only

digital channels.

 

I don't have cable TV, but the guy who built my house installed cables to

every room for use by the cable company. So I have TV cables without cable

TV. (Does that make sense?) I've connected my omnidirectional antenna in

the attic to those cables. So my over-the-air reception comes to each

room - and to my computer - via those ordinary coax cables.

 

I moved the coax cable to that input that says "for Cable TV" and voila!

Analog TV! ;<) I have a second tuner, a Pinnacle PCTV HD Pro Stick, which

plugs into USB, uses the same antenna (via a splitter), and gets ATSC

digital channels.

 

So, now, for the first time, I'm able to watch both analog and digital TV

channels on my computer. ;<) Now all I have to do is figure out how to get

my IR remote control working with MCE. NEITHER Hauppauge nor Pinnacle TV

software will run on my Vista Ultimate x64, so I have to use Vista

Ultimate's Media Center to use either or both of the tuners.

 

Those Installation Guides have pictures and should be clear as a bell - but

they leave me SO confused! Until I've figured out what they mean, and then

they seem almost as clear to me as to the folks that wrote them.

 

Anyhow, I can now watch on my computer about a dozen analog channels and a

half-dozen digital channels, and I can record one while watching another.

;<)

Vista 64 capture

 

Vista 64 capture

 

Hey Kevin, I was recently in the same situation as you and I came across a product: KWORLD DVD maker USB 2.0. I am using it right now on Vista 64 and it works great. I tried a few other products before this one and none of them worked. This one works great and best of all, it is the cheapest priced one of all the solutions I've tried and researched on the web. You can purchase it from tiger direct for $39.99. Anyhow, good luck.
