2 Emuzed Maui III-G Cards and Chipmonks

[gnutech]

I recently installed a second Emuzed Maui III-G card (Total of 2 cards) under 96.12. I configured both of them identically other than the device name and number (i.e., Device 1 and Device 2). When I test capture on them, at the same time, they both capture different feeds successfully, but one of the cards playsback the stream as if doing an Alvin and the Chipmonks impersonation. In actuallity, I believe both audio and video, on this stream, are being played back at an above average rate. The other card's playback is without issue.

Any suggestions?

Thank you for your assistance.

I removed both Maui III-G cards, then reinstalled and tested each card indepenently. Individually, both cards capture without issue. When both cards are tested together, however, one card captures properly and the other captures at a rate that seems as though it is fast forward.

I need to figure out if GB-PVR is the cause or not.

Does anyone have any recommendations for another video capture software that I can test both of the Maui III-G cards?

It sounds like a driver fault to me. GB-PVR doesnt really do anything low-level that could effect this. It just hooks up components supplied by Microsoft and by Lumanate/Emuzed and tells them to start recording. Anything that ends up broken in the stream is result of drivers outputting garbage.

It turns out that the Maui III-G driver that is provided through XP SP2 was the problem (too old). After updating my Maui III-G cards with the latest drivers

I was finally able to get both Maui cards to capture properly (without the chipmunks). The video capture does seem a little more grainy, now, though.

Could a driver cause a video capture to be grainy?

Yes, it could.
