Jerky transfer

Hi all,

Sometime when I transfer the video from my camcorder to my laptop using firewire, the video played on the laptop seems abit jerky on the frame of the human. I am currently using window movie maker and ulead studio 8.

I've tried to shut down the unnecessary program runing while doing the transfering, but it doesn't seems to work. I am quite sure the problems lies with the transfer cos I am seeing perfect playback on my camcorder but not on the downloaded video on my laptop.

Any kind soul to help me?? Thanks!!

I've been experiencing a similar issue with my set-up (Hauppauge PVR250 card, AMD64 2GHz CPU) when trying to capture at maximum resultion and bitrate. I found that I could get more successful results by reducing the bitrate (i.e. from 12000 bps to 8000 bps).

I would have hoped my set-up could capture at highest bitrate as I wanted to be able to get best quality still shots from the video, but I guess that's not to be (unless anyone else can offer any other advice to both of us?).

Cheers
