Blue screen of death when video-capturing
Posted: 20 Dec 2004 10:15
Hi all,
I already discussed this problem with some people on IRC, but I though I'd just post it here as well since others might benifit (and I don't have much to do anyway).
OS: Windows XP SP2
Edit: In version 0.8.1 and 0.8.2 nightly I have the following problem:
When I start a video-capture (audio-only works fine) I get a BSOD UNLESS I open the device properties as well. I just have to hit 'enter' a few times and then it works. So, why bother, well because I want to be able to strat streaming with the web-interface.
The old 0.7.2 version does work, but specifying a channel is not possible in that version. When I use the latest svn builds ans specify a channel I also get the BSOD. Same happens if I specify video size and chroma settings, but that is to be expected since the default settings seem to work fine.
I have an ASUS Tv/FM card with the philips saa7133 chip and the latest drivers from windows update (I tried others as well, with an old ASUS driver Windows XP just freezes instead of the BSOD)
I tried the same card in a different system, same problem.
I think I've described the problem quite thoroughly, (maybe too, sorry), so I hope someone has an idea.
Thanks for developing this great tool.
