Well, that *might* be a little more credible if the exact same video that failed to capture on my Vista system hadn't captured perfectly the same day when running RCAT on my other system, which uses Win XP.
So, this has nothing to do with a "change in stream format". In other words, even though Vista has been in developers' hands for more than 18 months, RCAT still doesn't work correctly. Very disappointing!
I would call it more factual, than an excuse.
Over new years eve of 2007/2008, CMT, Vh1 and mtv, along with Yahoo Music changed their streams making them un-recordable by certain software programs, including one of ours....it took a few months, but we were able to update the software and get those programs recording again.
More recently, CMT Changed their streaming media again, as did God.TV, hulu.com, and a few other companies...
These are not excuses by any means, they are what they are, for lack of better words.
At any rate, we try to keep our customers happy to the best of our ability, so please understand we ARE aware of these types of things happening, and we start working on them as soon as we find out enough information!
Thanks all for your patience.
