The video displays properly but when I try to > initialize a capture I get an error window telling me: The Marvel is great for capture and it's great for playback but unfortunately not at the same time. As Ronald says this is a driver issue and no doubt it will be resolved in the fullness of time. Xawtv (streamer) is bad because it tries to capture raw yuv not hardware encoded mjpeg. This is a separate Marvel driver issue but it may not be fixed, I don't think the developers regard it a high priority. I don't know how Ronald and Berni would feel about this but LVS would be more useful for the Marvel owner if there was an option to turn off the capture side of things and to allow hardware playback instead. Marcus, your best option currently is to cue up your tape using xawtv then capture using lavrec from the command line or a shell script (close xawtv first) then edit using glav. Glav is simple but effective, its only drawback for me is it can only handle one edit at at time. You have to save each edit to a new editlist then combine them by hand in a text editor. I know the whole process is a bit klunky but you can get very good results in the end.
