Video Compilation Min Video Card Requirements

[iacoia]

I am trying to convert Tivo files to DVD using the Copy & Convert Video Compilation function per Tivo's directions. When I click on the Video Compilation tab I get an error message that my video card fails to meet minimum specification. I can't find anywhere that tells me what the minimum spec should be except that it needs to be DirectX 9 compatible. I've updated the card drivers and DirectX drivers, but I'm not getting anywhere. The system is a few years old, but I'm hopeful I can still use it for this purpose.

 

CPU: P4 3.2ghz

RAM: 512MB (upgrading to 2GB this week)

Video Card: ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, 128MB 12/1/08 Driver update

Windows XP SP3 w/ November DirectX release installed

 

I forgot, Creator 2009, clean install.

It is a fairly oldish card - try opening Videowave and in tools, options, select software rendering

 

Let us know if that helped

Tried opening VideoWave, got an error message "There are insufficient graphics capabilities for the application to run which can be caused by the following: Video Card DRive may not support DirectX 9 or Your Video Card Hardware may not be sufficient for full DirectX 9 support."

My Radeon 9800 Pro, worked in my backup computer, before it died.

 

Get the latest DirectX.

The OP said that they have the November DirectX Bruce

Then that 9800 may be headed south. It should handle the software, even if it is an old card. Mine did.
