Does anyone know from where I can obtain the latest working drivers for Windows Vista 64-bit Ultimate for the EzCap device, RCA to USB through digital converter so that both video and audio can be seen and heard? It's an integral part of Cyberlink PowerDirector10 64 bit. Some drivers show only the video but no audio, others don't work at all. It's for EM2861 video/audio and even eMPIA Technology's site does not have working drivers. I keep on getting a BSOD in USBPORT.SYS Otherwise I will be forced into buying another device.

Free drivers and softwares for EasyCap, EzCAP and Dazzle devices I have worked with USB video capture cards since 2007 and I have sold over 4000pcs + tested itself over 350pcs several models of EasyCaps, EzCAPs and Dazzle devices.

Yes, I saw you here. Do you think I'd miss your visit? I also noted your post in the topic Bill linked where you replied that the solution doesn't work with Linux. Checking, for the record, you indicated elsewhere that you have Windows Vista (on 'Brutus') but 99% of the time you use Linux Mint 17 'Qiana' 64 bit Cinnamon. Are you dual-booting Windows Vista and Linux or is Linux installed on your old Windows XP computer? From what I'm understanding, it wounds as though regardless of your efforts, you get a BSOD with Windows Vista.

It may be helpful if you provided the logs requested at since they may point to something else causing the BSOD. I also noted your post in the topic Bill linked where you replied that the solution doesn't work with Linux. Hmmm, I guess I am confused. Assuming that Ian S is you, it seems you replied to that 3 year old Yahoo Answers thread after I linked to it. But what confuses me is your opening post here at Sysnative says nothing about Linux, only Windows and in that Yahoo Answers reply you say it is 'great for Windows'. So, in terms of this thread here where you ask about Windows Vista, is your problem resolved?

Well, I think I am even more confused now. I thought this was an audio problem. BTW, the native resolution for that monitor is 1366x768 (16:9).

1440x900 is 16:10 and may not be supported by that monitor. That said, the monitor used should have nothing to do with this. Windows does not communicate with monitors - that's the job of the graphics solution. Windows can be chugging along without a care in the world, totally oblivious to the fact nothing is being displayed on the monitor because the graphics card is not communicating with the monitor. Same with sounds and the audio card/integrated audio.

That is, Windows does not communicate with the speakers - only the sound card. The driver to get this converter working needs to be a driver for the EzCap EM2861 device, not the monitor.

And finding that seems to be a common issue. And the PowerDirector software must be able to communicate with that device too. I think if me, I would see if I could get that device to work on another system - preferably a Windows 7 system.

I would also verify the tape player is actually outputting audio by connecting the Audio L/R cable to a HT receiver and see (listen) if it works. USBPORT.SYS errors are often associated with high DPC latency issues.

I wonder if a look by one of our DPC latency experts would do some good? It sure could not hurt.

@Digerati, sigh! Assuming 'Digerati' is an actual human in Nebraska. Look up all the SAMSONs in Lincoln, they're ALL my cousins! We're NOT talking LINUX. If I can get it to work under Linux Mint 17 'Qiana' 64 Cinnamon, so much the better. But on reboot, I load Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit (hello???) and use Cyberlink's PowerDirector 10 64 bit to communicate with my VCR. Up to now I have had NO PROBLEMS until a hard disk crash that wiped 1.5TB data.
