I can't download and record you tube videos. I used to be able to with the earlier version.

Yup, Jing is a great alternative to Camstudio that can be used to record screen on Windows XP, but note that its free version has 5 minutes' recording limitation. Thus you may try this free screen recorder, it's totally free and features recording screen, taking screenshots, uploading videos to youtube.com and many more.

Use the keepvid.com site to download an MP4 version of the video.

Then, use an MP4 demultiplexer to split out the audio. You can find such a tool here:

DVBPortal

You may need to change this audio file into something you can play on an MP3 player, but iTunes may be able to do the conversion for you.

Your CPU uasge has Maxes to the maximium ie 100% from the task manager performance tab, when you are recording a video through the TV Tuner card.

Hi,

I suggest to you to uninstall your Instant DVD recorder program and then download and install this update version http://pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/Products/Consumer+Products/Home+Video/Studio+Plug-Ins/Instant+DVD+Recorder+Support/Download+Area/Drivers+-+Updates/IDVDR261.htm?mode=documents&Display=1

Checked also if your vista is 32 bit then download under 32 bit but if that is 64 bit then download for 64bit. Try again.

How to Record Webcam Video with Earlier Versions of Windows Movie Maker If you're still using Windows XP, your Windows Movie Maker version might still support capturing video from a webcam. To do this, go to your WMM Movie Tasks and then select "Capture from Video Device". Select webcam from the list of analog devices. You must also select the video input line you want to use for capturing your webcam video. Then enter a name for your captured video file and the location of the drive where you want to save it. Select your video setting preferences for the video you want to capture. To stop capturing, you can either
choose to stop anywhere during the recording session or indicate a specific time limit before the recording stops.
How to Record Video on Your Webcam with Newer Versions of Windows Movie Maker When we say newer versions, we are referring to Windows Movie Maker version 6 which comes pre-loaded with the Windows Vista system. Since Windows Vista is a pretty advanced OS, we expected the latest version of the WMM to support webcam video capture as well. It's very helpful and economical since it comes packaged with Windows Vista, and you don't have to pay the extra cost just to have that tool.
So, the next question now is, how can you record a webcam video using Windows Movie Maker 6. Actually, like we said - you can't. You won't see the "Start Capture" tool in the File Menu of your latest Windows Movie Maker.
Your best bet is to look for alternative and cheaper software that would help you capture whatever you want to record from your webcam. Or, better yet, use the software that comes with your webcam to capture video and then import it into Windows Movie Maker for editing and enhancements. If your webcam didn't come with video capture software, you're in luck because there are free software appllications available for you to download to do such tasks. You can find a good list of webcam video capturing software from this list:

This is a issue recognized in HP Notebooks which are shipped with Webcams earlier. However, latest Notebooks are having this issue resolved.
Basically the issue is that the videos that were recorded using the webcam used to record fast than normal because of which the issue started.
HP had released a patch for this where the Videos recorded using inbuilt Webcam will be solved. However, this is not going to fix the issues with the videos that are already recorded.
You can download the patch from the link below :
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericSoftwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&softwareitem=ob-51291-1&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

Download and save the Patch in the Notebook and double click it once the file is saved to install it.
Restarting the Notebook will complete the installation.
Record any video and check by playing it to confirm.
Hope this helps...

Hi,

You should try a lens cleaner. The lens might just simply be dirty which is causing all your troubles.
