Belkin HiSpeed USB DVD Creator and Director

Belkin HiSpeed USB DVD Creator and Director

Hi folks,


list, we have a problem.

Has anyone reading this list ever worked with Director (MX) AND a Belkin
"HiSpeed USB DVD creator"? This device takes a video signal a input and
delivers it via USB to the computer - I'd say it's an A/D converter for
video signals (coming along with some DVD creation software, why I
assume they call the device "DVD creator").

We use it within an application that grabs the actual video signal on
every frame and does some mathematics with it using the TrackThemColors
Xtra (we've tried the free WebCam Xtra before, but this was too slow for
our app).

First it was running on a W2k pro-PC with an Athlon XP 3000+ and 1Gig
RAM, now it's running on a WinXP pro (on the same machine).

Always we switch on the video grabbing the application leads to a system
crash or sometimes only Director crashes (fatal error) after 20-45
minutes. This happens whether we use 3D-lingo or not.

We have installed all the newest drivers and BIOS, our experiments show
that it doesn't have to do explicitly with the TrackThemColors Xtra
(since if we use a simple USB-webcam for our video signal it runs and
runs), but with the Belkin device.

Any experiences greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance,
Roman.
