We found this problem was caused by not having the camera image size set in your video capture settings (usually can be set through VIDCAP in WinXP or your camera software, can be found in the "system 32" folder I believe) not being set to the correct CIF size.
NTSC CIF (which is 30 frames/sec) has a field resolution of 352 x 240 PAL CIF , (which is 25 frames/sec) has a higher 352 x 288 resolution. This is an issue we have here in Australia as usually most cams default to NTSC It just seems a bit backwards that if you are in NTSC that you would have a grey border around your image, but try one of these video sizes.. Hope that helps ya out Cheers Matt Rendell Usually we have found that this is Amarnath Reddy wrote: Hello, We are having a small problem with the Video Capture card. We recently upgraded our AG server(runs on Win XP). With the new capture card, we get a gray border for the video output. Did anyone face this problem before?
