Problem trying to use PVR software using an USB caputre card

Post by prankstare »

Hi,

I have Windows 7 and VirtualBox 4.1.6 emulating Windows XP.

Here's the thing: I have a PixelView USB 2.0 external capture card and its driver can only be used under Windows XP so that's why I'm trying this... but everytime I try to watch anything, VirtualBox stalls and freezes all the system (including my Win7). What could be? Is there a way to make it work? I'm using WinDVR3.0 by the way, which bundled my capture card.

Thanks.

Not everything works virtual and some just don't work well.
