Hi Folks -

I am just starting to use EOS movrec with my Canon 7d to capture
liveview AVIs'

I have an older dual-core laptop running W7.

I have loaded the latest Canon utilities.

On recording the liveview stream i am getting a very low frame rate.
(mostly around 8 fps, but sometimes dips to less than 2)

I have tried a few settings in movrec - i.e. using the non-stable frame rate and not displaying the image on the laptop, with no real improvement.

Looking in task manager, the CPU is not particularly stressed, and there is plenty of free RAM.

Is there anyone out there with some experience with this software,
and perhaps a faster frame rate?
(hoping you might be able to give me some tips!)

any help will be most appreciated.

cheers,
