Yeah that is already selected as default but I think the composite video just sucks. I need to use s-video to get the primium quality.

I use Pinnacle Studio to record, if you want help, lemme know.

Yeah thats what I have been using and I actually like how the cutting of clips works in Pinnacle. Much more ease if you ask me. I don't know much about Pinnacle Studio and it is all locked because I don't have the stupid primium software. It does have a few more video trasitions than WMM but not many. I actually find wmm confusing the only thing I like wmm for is that you can play with the audio more like fade in and out. I bet Pinnacle can do that too but I just havn't figured it out yet.


I think I might upgrade to Vagas 6.0 or something in the near future so I can get more options.

I think you called it the wrong name, because i searched Amazon for one, and this is what came up... about 16 different things that all looked like this:

I'll find you one on Amazon after school.

anyone know why the footage comes out pretty dark? Is there something i can go into to adjust the brightness? I use the ADD BRIGHTNESS effect on WMM but then it turns almost too bright.

Go to your capture card settings, or Dazzle settings..you can get to it when you click "Capture video" if you're using WMM, and there's a button somewhere to bring up settings..then just raise the slider bar on the brightness scale.

Hey thanks alot. I didn't realize it was right there. Finally I can start recording.

Another quick question while I'm at it, for those who use Vegas.

If I record using WMM, can I just save the movie file and then open it with Vegas to edit?

i just bought Pinnacle and tried to record otter's way and the Wondows movie maker freeze's up. I dont own a vcr and my DVD player is in my living room. I bought that Mad Catz S-video audio cbale that otter shows but I still cant record. Help me out if you can. Please.

I tried a few different ways but I keep getting some error.

BTW this is what I bought.
Pinnacle Systems - Studio MovieBox USB - 230100116

Should I take it back and try something else? I also have some home movies that i want tomake shorts out of so that why I bought this particular one.

If you have Pinnacle record in that and then edit in WMM if you want.
