    Hey guys, I am having this strange problem in Windows Vista, when trying to capture video using my new EasyCAP USB Video Capturing Adapter. Video Capture video preview is very smooth in Windows XP, under all programs, but in Vista, the video preview is *very* slow. You see the frame change like once in every 10-15 seconds! Sometimes there is no video feed at all !!! What could be the problem here ?

    Works fine on my PC with Vista. Is it the same PC with XP and with Vista or is it another machine?

    You could check with Windows task manager, Processes view:
    - which process is taking a lot of resources?
    - when you right click your capturing SW process, you can change it's priority, maybe that helps.

    Wouldn't know otherwise
