I have a JVC camera and am capturing video on my 1st computer, a 2.4Ghz laptop. I used Windows Movie Maker for a while but then the encoding stopped working on it. I'd select High Quality Video (NTSC) and click capture, and the second after it started capturing the preview and time count on the computer froze. The camera played back normally. It lets me capture in WMM using DV-AVI but the HD in the laptop is to slow for this. How can I fix WMM or should I use a better program for (S)VCD capture & conversion?

What do you mean your HD (assuming hard drive) is too slow?

Are you using USB or Firewire to capture?

I am capturing via firewire from my laptop. Is it possible the laptop's hard disk (HITACHI_DK23EA-30) is too slow to handle uncompressed AVI capture in real time?
