Hi Glen,

I don't know if I can answer your specific question, but a few weeks  
back I needed to create a video capture app, and I went through all  
of the videoGrabber commands and combed through the sample stack.  
What I found was that the sample stack was unreliable for me, so I  
worked out a process that seemed reliable and made my own sample  
stack. Then I wrote it all up and you can read about it at <http:// 
revolution.byu.edu/video/videoGrabber.php>. There are also directions  
there for downloading my sample stack.

Hopefully these materials will help you to find a clue to sorting out  
your troubles.

Regards,

Devin
