I did a seach and found a partial answer for my first question and nothing on my second.

1. Does VD work with Vista (Ultimate)?

2. Can I use VD to capture a live video stream right to my hard drive?
Live Video Camera feed --> laptop hard drive (no tape)

I do not want to buy a Vista laptop only to find out I can't do what I want to do with it!

Thanks,

Dalobo

I have tested VirtualDub on Windows Vista Business Edition and verified that basic functionality works. I haven't tried Vista Ultimate Edition, but think it will be different. There may be some issues with the displays not consistently refreshing in 1.6.x if Aero Glass is enabled; disabling DirectX support in Options > Preferences > Display will work around this problem. 1.7.1 has a workaround that will cause some ugly flickering occasionally but should resolve this problem.

I haven't tested video capture at all on Vista, but it should work.

You should be able to capture a live DV stream, Vista or not, but note that it will give a type-2 DV AVI file.
