Capturing video, is there a timer to start

theadmin wrote on 3/6/2003, 10:01 AM

I am pretty used to capturing some of these tv programs with other software packages. But i really like the quality that i get whil capturing with vegas, is there something that i can do or an option that allows me to start capture at a certain time? I found the property that sets how long to capture for, but now i am missing what time to start the capture.

I don't know if this is in the software (probably not) but is there a way that i can accomplish that?

Thanks.

Hi John,

You might try RemoteKeys, a freeware macro app... it can press buttons for you at specified times.

What settings do you use in the capture setting to record your tv shows? Do you select it from Project Video Properties. I tried to capture a program using my ATI all in wonder card had my vcr hooked up to it by rca cables I saw the video but was unable to capture. Any ideas why and what format would it capture under?
