VideoStudio :: No Picture Preview Whilst Capturing From Mini DV Camcorder
Jul 22, 2011
Using VideoStudio X4. After initial problems with installation it has now installed fine and is working well. However, when capturing video from my Panasonic NV-GS400 mini dv camcorder the film does not show in the preview window. It did at first but now does not preview. I have not changed any settings nor have I changed anything in my method of capture. The film does capture ok - capture in avi format - its just a little unsettling not being able to see it during capture. I watch it on the pull out screen of the camcorder so I can tell when to stop capture etc.
Also, when capturing, the film runs for a few seconds then stops and then starts again and the capture begins from the second start point. I never had the problem with Ulead 9 but did have it with ProX2 but wondered if that was just a glitch because I was running it on Windows 7 and it had not originally been developed for that. Apart from that the program works well even when rendering HD footage from my new Panasonic HDC-TM700.

I have used old tape type camcorder (sony) for 7 years and used firewire cable(1394) to capture the video into my desktop. capturing file format was AVI(DV type 1). It's pretty big size of files but I like this type of file format because there were no compression so that I can keep an uncompressed original DV files. When I captured(download) the video from camcorder, I usually turn power on the camcorder after connect into desktop, then VideoStudio automatically recognized my old SONY camcorder so it's always ready to capture the videos.
BTW, I purchased new HD camcorder (JVC, model jvc gz-e10). I did connect same what I did tape camcorder, but neither my computer nor VSX5 can't recognized to capture. (It just only detect as movable device, i.e. SD card...)
How to capture this video clip from HD camcorder using VideoStudio program? Inside of SD card, captured files have "mts" file extension.

I have been using VS for quite a few years firstly with VS6 and currently have X3 (depending on a few things I will probably upgrade to X4).
Up until the present time I have been capturing on my PC at home via fire-wire from my current camcorder (Canon MD 235 which of course uses mini DV) . I want to purchase a new laptop to give me some mobility and also be able to edit produce DVD's on the move, looking around virtually no current laptops (unless I go well beyond my budget (around £500)) have fire-wire or even an express port to use a expansion card with fire-wire.
I realize that I will probably have to step up and get a newer more up to date camcorder over the summer and what I am trying to understand is the difference in capture formats. I like the look of some of the low end Hard drive/flash/SD card camcorders around, but how do you import to PC, is all done by USB?
In what formats is the video imported and how easy in comparison to say Avi files and is it easy to edit video using VS and produce a DVD from the resulting files?

I usually download my DV tape from the Panasonic analog camcorder to my JVC DVD recorder. However, I wanted to try downloading from the cam to the PC. I connected the cam to the PC and started VS Pro X3. When I click on "source" I get the message: No video device driver installed or device is not connected. The device (cam) is connected and the 1394 port is wrong properly. Then the video driver is needed. Where do I get this from-do I need to reinstall VS?

I am using Video Studio x2 and I am trying to edit video from my HD camcorder. The video that I am trying to edit is in MPEG4 format and at a rate of 30fps at 1280x720. I have tried to change the properties within Videostudio but when I try to watch it or do anything else, the programme crashes and I have to start again. In the past I have to down grade the format to DVD, and then it works, but at a cost. Does VSx2 support this format or do I have to upgrade the programme to support HD editing? I am using a Laptop with a intel core 2 prossessor and a 1024mb Nvidia Geforce graphic card, which I feel should be enough.

I have just installed VS X5 and when attempting to capture/import from my Panasonic HDC-TM 700 camcorder am unable to do so. I get two messages either "Use a display environment of 1024* 768 or more", or "There is no capture driver installed on this system". Neither of which make much sense.
I was previously using VS X4 with no problems importing. Should I assume that the necessary driver is on the DVD or do I need to download another driver. I have HD Writer AE installed.

I currently have a Sony HDR-CX160 camcorder, which does not have a firewire port. I also have a 3 month Dell XPS8500, which does not have a firewire port. I am running Windows 7 64bit. When I hook up my camcorder via USB, Windows DOES recoginize it. It is not recognized by Corel, not in the Capture Video, Import form Digital Media,, Import from Mobile Device or Stop Motion. (my webcam does show up) It does not show up in the pull down tree. I understand that you can use Windows Movie Maker, or the supplied Sony PMB software to download it, but I paid for Corel to be able to do this. Why I would like Corel to be able to do this is that you need a"live" camera to be able to use the Stop Motion Capture, not something that has been recorded before.

I just purchased an Aiptek GO-HD hi-def camcorder that outputs movies in 16:9 1280x720 H.264 MOV files. I can't seem to get these to work with VS10 or VS11. It either locks up when rendering to a DVD (VS10), or the DVD that it makes has extremely choppy video and audio and is unusable (VS11).

My laptop Dell Latitude E5420 is not recognising my camcorder. I tried with two of my mini DV camcorders, both of them are not recognised. When I connect through the IEEE1394 port on the laptop, it doesn't respond at all. In UL VS or any other video capture programs, the camcorder is not recognised, but only my laptop built in web camera is recognised.
Tried with changing IEEEE1394 host controller with Legacy in the Device Manager, but doesn't work.

I'm running X5 on Windows 7 and I'm trying to put a VHS tape to DVD. I have a Winfast VC100 U capturing device with the red white and yellow cables plugged into the VCR. The video plays through X5 (with no sound) and when I press the 'capture video' button, it says its capturing, but in the information box, the available space does not budge. Once I stop the capture and go to the edit screen it has only saved a video of 2 frames. I have never tried to capture a VHS tape before.
My current video settings are:
Input source - Composite
TV System - PAL B

When we capture music from CD's in Pro X3, the last few seconds of the songs get cut off. Or the recording skips, cuts out a few seconds of the song right before the end, and then captures the end of the song. It's an intermittent problem with no rhyme nor reason that we can figure out as to which songs are being affected. But once a song has been captured and the end garbled, that same song will always be garbled no matter how many times we delete the recording and recapture it.

Whenever I try to capture anything from VHS > DV > Firewire to my PC VS crashes hard core. Everything freezes and it reboots.
i7-2700K I have Two brand new 4th generation SSD (Vertex 4's) in RAID 0, Read and writes @ 1GB/sec I have 16GB of RAM, 2133, half is a RAMdrive (temp). This reads and writes @ 5GB/sec. I usually write to this because there is no possible chance of bottleneck. Though I've tried SSD or HDD write too. Top of the line everything else, MB, sound, etc. How the hell much more power do I need?
Can't believe the FREE 100Kb WinDV can capture for 8 hours + no hiccups, no lost frames, but the second I try to capture, even go into capture mode with VS14 it starts to stall, crash, choke up and eventually reboot the whole F%^&$%^ machine, leaving my 6TB RAID 5 to have to rebuild.

I have VideoStudio X3 which has been had been running fine, however when I came to use it today I found that although I could capture video from within the capture tap, nothing was displayed on the "monitor" window. I've un-installed and re-installed and still nothing. I can control the tape transport via clicking on the play / pause / rew etc buttons under the monitor window, but there is no picture displayed. To check if this was a fault with the camera / Firewire card I launched Windows Movie maker and that displayed the incoming source without any problem, suggesting this is a VideoStudio issue.
System spec:
Vista Business 32bit
Dual core Pentium running at 2GHZ
4GB RAM
Asus 210 silent (Nvidea) with 1GB RAM
Panasonic NV=GS65 3CCD
Using the monitor on the camera I captured a clip (again nothing displayed within VS) which when placed on the time line played back on the VS monitor, although it was very interlaced with zig-zagy edging on movement.

We forgot to stop capturing video using VS Pro X2. There is now a file size that is a bit over 337gb. When trying to open that file for editing, an error message pops up [There is no common media type between these pins] (17101:70:2)
I am assuming that this file cannot be opened to remove about 330gb of unwanted data.

-I just installed the VideoStudio v10 software and it captures video fine, however I have an issue with the audio. The audio is present but for some reason there is a noticeable static on the video file. Im using a 2000 Sharp ViewCam VL-A10 monaural/analog 8mm camcorder to transfer video to my computer. Im confused because there is NO static on the original 8mm tape, when I play video on the camera, the sound is fine as well as when I plug it in to my TV set for playback. I dont understand where the static is coming from on the digital transfer? Ive tried several capture formats MPEG, DVD, AVI etc. the static is present on all versions. Im using the EasyCAP USB device with A/V plugs for capturing.

I have purchased a Sony DCR TRV480 to play Hi8 tapes and convert to Digital Video. My camera came with a USB cable that plugs into the camera in the video jack. I want to capture the video using VSProX4. What do I need to do to capture it? Do I need a driver for the USB. I dont seem to have a firewire jack on this computer but it does have a 1394 labeled jack in the back. It has several USB jacks.

I have a Sony Handycam DVD403 that works great even though it is old. Was trying to import the mini DVD into X3. In the picture below you can see that X3 recognizes it, but the import button is grayed out.
Not sure the best way to go about this. I did not want to reinstall the Sony Picture Package software that never worked real well in the first place, but that is how I was able to import it into VS11. I was kinda hoping X3 would just import it and I would not have to use Picture Package. How to import my mini DVD's? The folders are:
DCIM
Video_RM
Video_TS

I have a Logitech webcam (not the best, but not the worst) connected to my Windows XP 32 Bit computer. (Yes, I realize I need to upgrade. We are working on that.) However, I make YT videos on a regular basis for crafting, and have recently started using Corel VideoStudio Pro X-5 Ultimate to capture via webcam and edit my videos. When I go to watch the video after it's been captured, the sound "skips" during the video. Words will be cut off, but the video looks fine. The actual video itself doesn't skip.
I'm wondering what the best setting would be to capture a video via webcam so that it is a smooth picture/sound (as smooth as a mid grade Logitech cam will do, of course), and have the file not be 3gb. Since I upload these to YT (not via the YT uploader), the smaller the file, the better, within quality reason.

I am using VideoStudio Pro X3 on my Windows XP Pro machine (see profile for specifics) to capture and edit video from my Canon Elura 100 MiniDV Camcorder. The problem I am having is that VS Pro X3 is stopping the capture during scene changes. It stops both the software and the camera. This does NOT happen on every scene change, but happens at differing times throughout the tape. It requires me to restart the capture from that scene forward. This happens regardless of whether or not I have the 'Split by Scene' option enabled. It is frustrating to have to sit through the entire tape restarting the capture at various scene changes. Previous tapes I have used Windows Movie Maker to capture the video. I have tried WMM to capture these tapes and it does work successfully without stopping at scene transitions. A related question is on Data Rate. The data rate listed under the properties menu in VS Pro X3 is almost 2x for the clips captured with VS Pro X3 vs the same clip captured with WMM while all other attributes are the same (including file size)?

Video studio prox5 ultimate. I am capturing footage using a canon dv video camera, 1394a firewire adapter and firewire cord. I purchased video studio in October 2012. Now, while capturing the footage, I am experiencing a problem with the audio being captured very choppy, like there is static in the audio. This just started happening. The audio is playing fine on the camera but not capturing smoothly.

What's the best format to use when transferring VHS tapes to my p.c? I've tried AVI but an average tape takes up to 400Mb on my hard drive which seems excessive. The VHS tapes mainly have films and documentaries the majority of which will be deleted once I've watched them on my PC.

I get no audio on playback of videos captured from my VCR using Easy CAP. I've tried making the USB audio input my default mic, and clicking the listen to this mic, and gotten as far as hearing the video sound as I capture. But still no playback sound. Even tried switching back to speakers for playback.
