A big thank you adis! but....

I get a green screen when playing captured avis.

All was fine with vt_210a

Matrox G400 DH
Runner G
Win XP Sp1
DirectX 9a
Latest mainboard drivers (Asus CUV4X/PIII 1Ghz)

Uninstall and reinstall VT3

How come these drivers are not mirrored in the downloads section of MURC?.. it would seem like a natural place to look for them..

[Adis]

You can make link to my page on your pages,
DON'T make links to files !

[Tjalfe]

In that case I think there should be such a link somewhere in the front page of MURC to make it easier for people to find these drivers...

Good job on the drivers.. I will try on my G400MAX/RRG at home when I get time

Thanks, adis! You're the man! VT3.0 works very nicely with the G100MMS+TV Quad card using Win2kPro, the 5.82.08 driver, and PD 6.82.016. I really appreciate all your efforts towards backward compatablity. Thanks again! - Guy Lauten

G400MAX/RRG on ASUS P3B-F (BX) Cel.III 1.4, W2K SP3, DX8.1

I got the old problem with the wired hair lines on top of every captured frame. I think this is because of the the use of Software-MJPEG only.

A little problem is the mixer of a Terratec DMX6fire LT.
When I'll playback a captured file then the master volume is muted.

The Installation is fine - but at moment I would prefer Version 2.10a. Thanks, Torsten

Uninstalled and reinstalled VT3...

Now all fine here.

Thank you again adis.

BTW 2K/XP VideoTools Cleaner is available for download.

This program will delete VideoTools traces from your computer.

This utility is usefull when you want to uninstall
older Matrox VideoTools and install newer one.

First uninstall old VideoTools normally.
Then clean traces with VideoTools Cleaner.
After cleaning you can install new VideoTools.

Hi Adis

I have a marvel G200 and running win2k. What would be your driver recommendation for Hardware MJPEG capturing with VT3.0?

[Debbie]

Hi Adis,

Thanks for your efforts, however I still have a problem with Matrox hardware compression MJPG.
There will be no apperent problem during recording but the clip will stop playing after about 8 min.

MOBO Asus P4S533-E (with latest BIOS)
Marvel G400-TV (with latest BIOS)
Audigy sound blaster
WinXP + SP1

Picture freezes or what ?
I experienced "freezing" with all previous versions.
It seems OK with VT 3.00...

It will stop playing (black screen) with an error message. If I remember correctly "unknown format" With past versions there has been "picture freeze"
