RR-G capture & playback problems using mjpeg codec
Hi, I've been happily using my rainbow runner g-series and Millennium G400 for over 6 months but struck problems last week when I upgraded my mothercard.
Changes to my system since the problems started occuring include:
- added new Sound Blaster Audio PCI card
- added new modem card
- added second harddisk
- changed mothercard and upgraded processor
When I now try capturing video (with mjpeg compression selected) the resulting captured avi file is only 3k in size and is not playable. Also, I've tried playing back avi files I captured before upgrading and they will not playback (I just get a green screen). I can view TV-in and line-in ok, and can even capture avi's ok when no compression is selected.
My initial thoughts were the new sound card might be conflicting (especially as it also uses IRQ 11, the same as the millennium g400 card), so I removed the sound card and still have the same problem. There is also ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering using IRQ 11. Any ideas how to fix this problem?

G400 has IRQ 11 and the RR-G is in the PCI slot next to the AGP slot.
