I'm trying to capture some old home videos, I have an O2 with the AV card and 192 megs of ram. I tried using Premier to capture them but it seems to have a limit to how much it will do. I have a 73gig drive in it so I doubt it's the problem as well. Any other video capture programs I could try?

Try the included one in MediaTools, MediaRecord. This works fine and has got much less overhead than Premiere.

If "old home movies" means VHS: beware that the O2 analogue input doesn't really like jitter in the time. You may need a timebase corrector (TBC) or a VHS player which includes one (I believe some semi-pro Panasonic equipment does).

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll try them later. Not sure if my VCR has tbc but it may as it was originally for recording security camera footage.

Tried using media recorder and it works great, thanks! It's a bit slow after stopping recording for when it processing movie, but at 180Mhz..... I just finish a recording and let it churn overnight.

Any suggestions on settings to use on the media recorder program? It was recording 320X240 and when I change it to do 640x480 it crashes after stopping a recording around 20 minutes long. 16 minutes worked ok though. I dont remember the error, something about mapping, I'll note it next time I get it though.

Here is a screenshot of the error.
