Hi, I am using ablecam with a Logitech Live Motion and a Leadtek Winfast TV2000 XP tuner card. Both can be added just fine to the cam list and the webcam works just great with TPC, local save and web streaming. I can also configure the TV card, it is correctly being detected as tuner and I get the two preview windows showing everything just fine. I enable the camera, and configure the web stream. Once I click on the box that would activate the streaming mode, the whole application "freezes" with an hourglass only. In the task manager, it is still using between 6 and 8% CPU and memory is going up slightly. No disk read/write is going on. Killing the application through the task manager does not work - it disappears from the screen but the process is still there... Even shutting down the PC does not work any more - a hard reset does the trick....

Any idea whats going on?

Thanks,
Tom

Are you referring to the Video Server here?
If so, try using a different codec.

I already tried several other codecs with the same result - and all codecs work just fine with the webcam. The problems only occur with the tv tuner card.
