I seem to be having the same problem. I have a 1TB harddrive, and it seems like every other video I capture from VHS seems to only copy part of it.

No you are not, not even close… That thread was about drives that are more than 1 TB

If you had that problem, it would not copy ONE FRAME!

Your problem is intermittent indicating trouble at the source.

With that in mind please detail everything right up to the point you click Capture. The answer is in the details you did not provide yet.

What details is there to state?

My computer is a Dell Studio XPS 435MT, Intel Core i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHZ, 12GB of Ram, 1 TB hard drive space, running Vista 64bit version, ATI Radeon HD4670 512MB

The first couple VHS tapes I tried capturing captured fine, these were 30-45min long. I put the vhs tape in, select the USB capture device, select DVD HQ as my capture setting, save the video file to My Video folder under My User Profile, Name the file then start the vhs player, once the video reaches the point I want to start capturing I click Capture Now. The current video is about 90 min. I usually let it run while I am at work or when I go to sleep. When I check if its complete sometimes there is a box that asks me if I want to save the file, I don't always get this box, I am going to run it again tonight and write down exactly what the box says if/when it pops up.

If there are any gaps on the tape with no recorded video the tape may well stop.

How do you know for sure? Did you baby sit it while capturing?

When you say Gap, I am assuming that you mean there is a blank spot on the VHS tape were video tape isn't recorded, like I started recording something, accidently fast forwarded and continued recording not realizing that I had a few seconds of unrecorded video tape in between the 2 times I recorded video. If thats what you mean, I know for a fact that I don't have a gap since I have watched the video tape in the past. Other video tapes have doen this before but usually the second time I tried capturing the video would capture properly.

I have tried recording the same tape at least 3 different times and it stopped capturing video at different times on each. It has also started capturing video 10 or more minutes into the video well after I clicked the capture now button. I have checked the videos status to ensure it does say Capturing before I walk away.
