Sapphire Theatrix Captures ONLY in FULL resolution

[cagapiou]

I have tried to capture from my Sapphire Theatrix in several resolutions lower than the PAL full of 720x576 with a number of programs including GBPVR with no success.

Whatever resolution I set the end capture is always at the maximum resolution of 720x576 and this happens with all programs.

Do you have any ideas to overcome this problem? Is this an ATI 550 Pro limitation or is it a driver problem?

Thanks a lot.

GB-PVR doesnt attempt to set the resolution for the Sapphire Theatrix, so you just end up with whatever is the default resolution.

ATI havnt made any information available on how to change the resolution, and it doesnt use the same approach as the Hauppauge cards.

many thanks for your kind help.

Is there a merit in capturing from VHS in full resolution (720x576 8MB/s), if you can afford the drive space to do, thatrather than at 352x576 4,5-6MB/s?

Thanks a lot.

I just started playing with this card.
Can you still change the quality settings to get smaller files?

You can go into the capture source setting (via config app) and edit the high/medium/low/cust1/cust2 profiles to change the bitrate. Requests to change the resolution will be ignored for the reason given above.
