Have to say…It worked gr8 for me when it was up here as a freebie.
Since then my pc crashed (nothing to do with this prog) and so I bought and built a new one. Sadly I can only get this prog again as a trial. It crashes all the time too. But I find if I limit the amount of channels it finds (single channel) it records perfectly with my Nova_T PCI Tv card. Ok the picture is upside down once recorded, but that’s my codecs…is it?
I got round this by using AUTOGK to convert the mpeg to avi and it flipped the vid the right way up.

I have to say though that while I originally thought that this prog was a god-send, I now have doubts over its stability…however, this cld be down to my pc’s configuration and not this fine ware. I only wish the free offer came up again so I could try the reg’d version to see if errors go away.
GaOTD…I have only good words for this place. Any problems with the software is between me and its makers. You have merely pointed me towards software that has made life easier when recording from my TV Card.

Guys, it’s ironic, you are talking about freeware alternatives. Well, you can download the exact same program from AVS for free now.

This program sucks, it does not close the file and causes explorer to crash.

Other than that, it seems to do what the built in windows movie maker can do.

Many bugs. I get the empty error dialog, but I can close it. Some screens hang, but I can go back. Doesn’t display files if you change the name. Partly supports my TV tuners, but significant manual settings required, and doesn’t set both horizontal and vertical resolution, so I can’t use resolutions below 720×480, which means that I don’t have sufficient compute for the realtime software encoding (it doesn’t support hardware encoders). Someone mentioned wanting to label channels; there’s an XML file that you can edit after you set it up. Like virtually all multimedia apps, it damages the Windows Registry and DLLs (replaces newer versions with older versions, etc.) Too many bugs to be useful to me.

Agree with #105, 106…no install problems, or application problems. I’ve used AVS4 stuff before and they are good basic programs. They don’t have all the bells and whistles (like the expensive programs do) but are easy to use. Good value if you ever need to buy the yearly subsciption($29)for all their programs. I paid so I could use one of their programs that hasn’t been offered. It works perfectly well. This one works with my webcam, as well. Thanks GOTD.

TO START WITH, THIS IS NOT A COMMENT ON TODAY’S SOFTWARE, BUT I FACED THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS SITE A FEW TIMES BEFORE. AS A RESULT, I MISSED OUT ON SOME OF THE SOFTWARE. SOMEONE AT GAOTD COULD PERHAPS HELP ME OUT.

WHEN I TRY TO OPEN YOUR WEBPAGE I GET THE FOLLOWING MESSAGE :

” WordPress

Error establishing a database connection

This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.

* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?

If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums. ”

ONLY WHEN I USE OPERA AND RELOAD THE PAGE A FEW TIMES (6 /7 TIMES) DOES THE PAGE OPEN PROPERLY.

OTHER BROWSERS ARE UNABLE TO OPEN THE PAGE AT ALL.

COULD ANYONE HELP ME OUT.

I tried and my computer kept hanging up and/ or moved very slow. Uninstall seemed to work. I recommend going for the game giveaway today and passing on this one. There is always tomorrow for another free program to try out. Thanks GAOTD for the opportunity… see you tomorrow.
