I'm still working on finding the perfect setting for getting my computer to capture video and proccess it afterwords. I had a pretty good thing going capturing in RGB16, but after reading about how it would be better to capture in YUY2 colorspace I thought I'd give it a try.

I've been re-encoding my video to DivX 3.11 - since it seems to run best on older hardware. I also like to play my video back in various operating systems using VLC http://www.videolan.org/ .

I have no problem watching video captured in RGB16 and DivXed in VLC.
I have a very scrambled video when doing the same with video captured in YUY2 -> DivX with VLC.
I have no problem viewing the YUY2 -> DivX video in Windows Media Player.

Does this make any sense?
Is there a way to make a conversion to RGB before it get's converted to DivX?
Any help would be appreciated.

That sure doesn't makes sense blink.gif
AFAIK DivX encodes and outputs the video in YUV color space

In VirtualDub when Video is set to 'Full Processing' VirtualDub converts the video to RGB32 and sends it the DivX encoder so there shouldn't be any difference.
