You need a lot of free space on your hard drive to capture a video. Make sure that there is enough space available to capture the entire video. Capturing video from a capture card requires about 3-30MB of hard disk space per second depending on the resolution and the data format of your video. A DV capture via a FireWire card (IEEE 1394) uses up to 3.6 MB of hard drive space per second.
