Hi. I need an app that will allow me to display a VCR output picture
(connected from my VCR to my Sony TRV428 camcorder) onto my laptop via
USB. So far all the capture apps I've tried have come up short. The
problem is that none of them except the USB Streaming Tool (that came
with the camcorder) will play any audio when the USB Audio Device is
selected. For now I'm using the audio from my stereo system, but I'd
like to control it from the computer. I'd also like the app to have a
brightness control.
The following are the ones I've tried, and their shortcomings:
USB Streaming Tool:
Sound from USB Audio Device - Yes (the only device with sound output)
Brightness/Contrast Control - Yes/No
Resizable Screen - No
Compact Display - No
DV 4500:
Sound from USB Audio Device - No
Brightness/Contrast Control - No/No
Resizable Screen - No
Compact Display - No
Netmeeting:
Sound from USB Audio Device - No
Brightness/Contrast Control - No/No
Resizable Screen - Yes (but the picture looks horrible when enlarged)
Compact Display - Yes
Amcap.exe:
Sound from USB Audio Device - No
Brightness/Contrast Control - No/No
Resizable Screen - Yes
Compact Display - Yes
Is there any freeware USB or firewire A/V display app that can do
better than these? Thanks.
