Problem capturing sky digibox recordings |

| Hi hope some one can help see below for details, I have been using this set up for a while to capture various inputs vhs or digital recordings from the TV when the capturing had finished l then edit files with nero vision 3 which l find really easy to use however recently l have had a problem with the audio stream as in when l drag it into NV to edit/trim l get a high pitched squealing sound or rather a pixelated audio sound, a bit like a satellite transmission when the signal breaks up, in every file. I can ignore it and proceed with the edit which l have done but when l burn to disc the sound issue remains on the final product the picture quality is perfect and this has been working fine up to now, any ideas anyone is there a codec missing l have virtual dub but have not experimented with that yet.
here is a recent capture I burnt How Not to Live You Life (Video Title, 0h 28m 13s) Video mode: PAL Aspect ratio: 4:3 Quality: Long play (3382 kbps) Resolution: 720 x 576 (CCIR-601 D1) Audio SmartEncoding ratio: 0.0 % Video SmartEncoding ratio: 99.2 % HERE ARE THE CAPTURE SETTINGS Honest tech tvr 2.5 device CX2388x video capture settings dvd-pal size (720x576) Frame Rate 25.00FPS CBR 60000bps quality normal enc speed normal minimun cpu intel P4 1.7ghz bit rate 6000 2801 mb/h Sample format: Automatic Audio format: Dolby Digital (AC-3) 2.0 Encoding mode: Fast Encoding (1-Pass)  |

| What do your captures sound like in a player? |

| "but when l burn to disc the sound issue remains"
in the player it's the same stand alone or pc l should also mention that l can capture to alternative settings ie avi but the quality isn't as good but the audio is ok |

| Run your captured file through GSpot and post the findings. Your end result on the DVD is AC3 audio but so far you have not said what your capture audio is.
I also meant a "player". What does the audio sound like in a player like Windows Mediaplayer or VLC Player. |

| ok l will do that and l will check WMP but l feel sure that it's the same and the audio is through the sound card FM801 (forte media) as it always was |

| checked the wmp and it's the same, also l checked the audio and it's not through the sound card. The capture card handles the audio and the video |

Without a GSpot screenshot or description of the video and audio of your original capture file nobody will know how to help you.

ok here is gspot file. Interestingly l recorded this in the format that is causing problems it's a stored recording on my sky (uk) digibox hard drive, again same audio problem, I also, while i was at it, recorded a live feed via the same digibox with the same capture card setup and when l imported it into NV the sound was fine!

| Edit your very first post in this thread and change it to mention a problem "capturing SKY broadcast". We have SKY here where I live but I don't have it and don't want it. I've read too many horror stories here on VideoHelp over the years. |
