so i bought a EasyCAP USB 2.0 Video Adapter with Audio external capturing device for my laptop. I managed to install it succesfully. When I tried opening windows movie maker (the new one that comes with windows vista) on my laptop which has windows vista, I couldnt capture from device because it wouldnt give me the option to do so. This was really odd since I had been recording on my desktop which has windows xp and the movie maker that comes with xp, and in that version it gives me the option to capture from device.

So my question is: is there anyway to capture in windows movie maker for windows vista?

I would appreciate any help.

Yo joe, you can't capture from that device, because windows movie maker for vista disabled capture from analog devices. It's a new feature, and it's kinda gay. Basically if you wanna record at that point, you would need different software. I believe you get a CD with video software (Ulead Video Studio 8.0 SE DVD) when you buy the EasyCap, try that and see if you can get video with that. Otherwise, like I said, you're gonna have to go with different software, cause movie maker doesn't support that anymore.
