Hello Bob,

Thanks for contacting us with this issue!

I haven’t had any customer reports of this happening. It sounds like a codec issue.

The Digital Viewer installer also installs Xvid codec to encode video files when you hit record. I’m thinking something didn’t go right with that install.

I’d like to gather logs from your system and see what could be going on. If you could, contact me at support@plugable.com and mention ticket #117727 and I can give you instructions on how to use our troubleshooting tool, PlugDebug, in order to send me some detailed system logs.

Please let me know if you notice any other oddities!

Cheers,

Sam Morgan
