what are you using to capture video? i had major frame droppings on 7200RPM ultra 2 scsi with dual celeron 466 and 256MB of ram .. using BT848 ..the drivers just aren't good enough for high fps capture(more then say 10fps) ...ive yet to try it with my new p3-800 10k rpm drive and 512MB ram but i expect the same results.
