video in capture :

[riche]

i'm using a pencil test camera to capture an image with the "video in". When the software is asked to capture the system crashes... any suggestions???

what System ? ... PC, Mac ? and what OS ???
which version of tvpa ?
what kind of video camera, driver, connection ?
does it work smoothly when used with other software ?

windows 7

i'm using the most recent update of 9.5 pro

jvc digital camera

pyro a/v link with fire wire connection.

i think the video driver is standard windows 7 ( i'm guessing because i haven't installed a video driver)

I sometimes use digicel for capturing and that software works fine however tvp is far superior. When using the camera for video background it seems to work fine. The camera and connection worked fine with tvpaint until recently . I think this started with windows seven but I don't remember for certain. I recently installed windows seven.

thanks for the response
