    Hey,

    I'm having a problem during capturing with iuvcr - if iuvcr crashes before the end of the capture, the resulting avi is unreadable - e.g. virtualdub says that it cannot determine the file type. I've tried a few things like divfix etc. but none of them recognise it as an avi either.

    Anyone else have the same problem? Know of a fix?

    Cheers

    Darned iuvcr

    I figured out a workaround - tell iuvcr to split the avi file into maximum segments of 1 min / 64mb, and the most you'll lose is the last minute of video...

    A little vb script to generate an avisynth script will jam the avi's together, and then you're cookin with grease...

    Cheers
