yes, I try to save it on mp4, this work when I change Capture plug-in. But I don't like this option, becose I can't change it to Xvid  codec.

I am new in this sphare, and when I beggin to capture the video, to understend and fined the good programms for this, this take me MANY time. :) So, I afraide to begine try new wrodes and use other codex for tihs.

The problem begine affter format, maybe this can be problem becose I don't install somethig ? But, I don't thing so.... :((

Ulead software can be quirky.  I have not played with their DV capture area, but I seem to remember hearing complaints about it.  Have you installed all the updates and patches available?  Version 10 has been out for quite some time, so I would think V9 would be all patched up by now.

Have you tried a different software package to import your digital video from your camera?

I don't intalled any paches on V.9, but this was worked before the format, what a strange. 
No, I don't have another software. :( 

I thing, only format maybe can help in this problem. 

Thanks, AlexSM.

It's possible the capture plugin got corrupted, I suppose.  I imagine you tried uninstalling and reinstalling UV9?

Have you checked the hard drive you're importing to to make sure it's got enough space?  Have you checked that hard drive for errors?  Have you changed any settings on your camera that might affect the import?

Try using a different capture program. I've had problems capturing with editing aplication as well and just don't bother anymore. Now I use, exclusively, http://windv.mourek.cz/ to grab all my DV. It's small, easy to use and free.
