I am experiencing this same problem! with an Ausus v9520 Video Suite card on an Asus A7N8X motherboard(98SE and XP). This is the first post I have found mentioning this problem....anyone have any suggestions?
this is annoying...it seems to happen on and off. sometimes while i'm capturing video the white bar shows up on my monitor, and other times, the monitor display is fine, but when i review the captured video file, the white bar is on the captured video. it does not matter what capturing software i use(power director pro, asus digital vcr, adobe primier, avid dv express, windows movie maker) the white bar still shows up on captured video...sometimes the capture video is fine and then all of a sudden without any indication the white bar will show up.
i have updated all the drivers for this card, and can only capture video through the analog video input on the adaptor that came with the card, at this time. i have not tried to capture through svideo. i can also use a video camera as a webcam...i have not experienced the problem with just sending the video through the card, it only seems to happen when i capture.
any suggestions or knowledge will be appreciated greatly!
the white bar seems to be the result of the macrovision copy protection conspiracy. even when you are trying to capture on a nonprotected home video! something to do with possibly bad video signal from the tape. you can read a discussion on it on the lower part of this page: http://www.videohelp.com/forum/archive/t213802.html
the fix seems to be using a driver that doesn't have the copy protection enabled. WMD v1.08 I personally installed this older driver, captured video, and NO WHITE BAR!
you can download this driver here:
ftp://download.nvidia.com/Windows/23.11/WDM_1.08.exe
Great that there is a fix available for this problem. Right now I have the WDM Capture driver version 1.23 installed on my PC. Should I uninstall this first (Add & Remove) then install the WDM version 1.08 ??
i didn't uninstall the driver that i had installed. i just installed the v1.08 driver, restarted, and captured some footage. that worked fine. it might be best to uninstall the one you have installed before you install the v1.08 driver though...
let me know if this drive takes care of your problem as well.
Hey man, the WDM Capture drivers vs.1.08 really took care of all my problems!!! I really appreciate your help. Hopefully NVIDEA will address this issue in future WDM-drivers. Thx, Ravello.
hey
i was wondering if anyone could help me load the wdm 1.08 drivers on my winxp pro personal cinema fx5700 256mb, i am havein trouble loading the driver i keep getting the little yellow exclamation mark in the device manager under the wdm capture driver..
I tried the WDM v1.08 and the software doesn't see the capture device anymore. What software were you using? I tried DVD Creator and Video Studio 8. It is a Sony Hi-8 and the card is an MSI GeForce FX5900VDT.
If I can't see the capture with the old driver will a digital video stabilizer help?
