I just updated the known bug list pinned post for 1.6.5 in the bugs section. The regression bugs to watch out for are the frameserver bugs and the MS MPEG-4 V3 format negotiation bug; other than that I do not know of any serious bugs in the edit module. I have already started to shunt features to a second branch and will probably make 1.6.6 a bugfix-only stable release unless I find a good reason otherwise. |

avery...
going to 'capture filter' (to adjust settings of a driver) still turns off the preview.
rather annoying to go to some other capping app just to adjust brightnest/contrast, don't you think?

Yes, but not a bug. Not sure how I want to solve it. Easiest way would be to add a Capture Filter (with display) command, but that isn't very intuitive.

Well what do you know... 
And I thought it was just my system acting screwy. I didn't realize that it was normal behavior. So why is the preview disabled during the dialogs, if I may ask?

May the FOURCC be with you... |

well, then all of your previous vfw versions have a bug as it's working ok with them.
how to solve it?
helluva lot dshow apps out there that don't hide preview when one does need it.

Some capture drivers expose critical settings through their filter configuration dialogs that are inaccessible if the filter is active while the dialog is displayed.
i4004: Does the new version act differently if you use the devices in VFW mode? If not, it's not a bug.

ps/
in my post [Posted: Apr 16 2005, 09:12 PM] i didn't call it a bug.
it doesn't matter much if it's a bug or dshow quirk or something. i just said it's not working. and it should. like it's working in plenty of other dshow cap apps.

Capture is broken for ATI Rage Theater users with the wdm-vfw-wrapper. Program freezes up when File/Capture is chosen and the audio from the TV tuner stays on (with or without the wdm-vfw-wrapper installed).
Bottom of page says ...
Connected to capture device: ATI Rage Theater Video Capture (Directshow)
The program freezes up so there is no way to change any settings, if any settings would fix the problem.
Video Capture works fine in VirtualDubMod and Virtual-MPEG2 using the wdm-vfw-wrapper but not on VirtualDub 1.6.5. |

You're not using the WDM wrapper; you're attempting to use the WDM device directly. 1.5.10 couldn't do that. Selecting Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32) (VFW) is what you want to mimic the behavior of 1.5.10. Does that freeze up too?

I tried VDub 1.6.4, VDub 1.6.5 and VDubMod 1.5.10.1 before installing the wrapper (which took forever to find since most of the links I found were dead links, including the ones on this site) and all programs either froze up or told me that I didn't have a capture device.
I uninstalled VDub 1.6.4, installed VDub-MPEG-2 and the Wrapper and now I can capture with all except for VDub 1.6.5 which I'd like to try since it has the keyboard channel changer for the TV tuner.
I can't open any options in VDub 1.6.5 to select Microsoft WDM Image Capture (Win32) since the program freezes up when I click File, Capture. I could've sworn I saw that option in the other versions before but after installing the wrapper, all I see now in VDubMod an VDub-MPEG2 is the ATI Rage Theater Video Capture. I thought there were three options before
I am using Windows 2000 Professional SP4.
I was hoping that there would be more capture resolution options by using VirtualDub to capture but unless the Microsoft WDM Image Capture has more options, it doesn't look like it. Matter of fact, it looks like there are less. At least with the ATI Catalyst software, I can capture AVI at 400x300, 480x360 or 560x420 and more MPEG capture resolutions. With VirtualDub, my only options are low resolution or high resolution. No mid range resolution for TV capture.
Another annoyance is that the default capture framerate is 15 frames per second when broadcast TV is 29.97 and you have to change the framerate every time you go to try to capture. It has no problem remebering the resolution, just the framerate.
OK, I just looked under Device Manager and it shows Legacy Audio Drivers and Legacy Video Capture Devices ( which looks like the WDM VFW Capture Driver Win32 ) and it says that they are working properly. |

I installed VirtualDub 1.5.10 and no, it doesn't freeze up. Only VirtualDub 1.6.5 freezes up. |

I reinstalled Virtualdub 1.6.3 and it freezes up too. |

Here are some screenshots.
These are after installing the Wrapper. Before, I couldn't get any version of VirtualDub to capture. Now all older versions work but no 1.6.xx versions will capture.

well, i hate screenshots that make forum window not fit my 800x600 desktop.
see the vdub in registry;
http://i4004.net/i4004/vdub%20in%20registry/1.png
now, what if your saved 1.5.10 settings are making problems for 1.6.5?
i dunno, avery does.
if my suspicion is correct, then you should erase the vdub entry, and use 1.6.5 only from then on.
(i don't know, i didn't read all that you said here)
i was thinking how it would be cool to have some tool to easy extract (and then merge again, when needed) different vdub (cap) settings from and to the registry.
this would be replacement for the lack of capping 'profiles'.
but i didn't investigate possibilites too much as i already have 2 versions (redfish's versions has it's own spot in registry, as you can see) and that covers me nice.
why is vdubmod entry there, you ask?
well, i admit i tried it. i didn't like it. it is erased from hdd, but registry entry stayed. (i just erased it now. )
mhm avery; did you see how blight solved this:
http://www.inmatrix.com/zplayer/highlights...multicopy.shtml
incredibly simple and good!
(i have 3 versions of zplayer installed. )
i would love to see this in vdub.
3 instances for me right away.
<wink>
1lores, one medium res (as far as ffvfw mpeg4 goes...576x576), and last one full res mjpeg.
hell, this is a good suggestion to elegantly avoid the "profiles".

DarrelS:
If File > Capture hangs on entry, hold down SHIFT the next time you try. It prevents VirtualDub from activating the device that was used last time, which may be causing problems.
Can you list exactly which devices are under the device list in 1.6.5? We need to get 1.6.5 working on the Image driver first; comparing 1.6.5 on DirectShow with 1.5.10 on VFW is an apples-to-oranges comparison and is not helpful.
