:( I have GrabBee+deluxe successfully installed on my PC (Win XP Pro SP3). Hopefully someone who also uses this software can answer me two questions:

  1. The audio level coming through the USB Capture lead to my PC is so high that very audible distortion occurs on the resulting recording. I have tried reducing the "volume" fader on the GrabBee window but this only affects the sound coming directly through the speakers, the recorded audio is still highly distorted. Because I work in audio I was able to insert a -30 dB in-line attenuator to each audio channel but these have minimal effect despite their relatively high attenuation capability. I have found a workaround which is to simultaneously record the audio to an external audio editor (Adobe Audition) whilst transferring the video and a highly distorted audio track (for use as a guide to inserting/lining up the separate audio track) and after completion I insert the separate audio track in to my video editor and mute and eventually delete the audio recorded via the USB Capture. This works but is clumsy and does entail a very careful check for lip-sync etc.

Does anyone else have this problem and if so, how do you resolve it?


  1. My antivirus (AVG 8 Pro) keeps telling me that the file ...ProgramFiles/USB_Video_Device/Utility/Host.exe contains the virus Win32/Fujacks. A quick Google search suggests this is not a "harmless threat" but if I allow my AV to quarantine the affected file GrabBee cannot run.

Can anyone else confirm whether they also have this "virus"? Is the software genuinely infected?


I should add I am running the latest versions of GrabBee and driver software (I checked on the VideoHome site).


TIA for any advice/help.

Hi Jeff.
Did you receive an answer to your question about distorting sound? I have the same problem and am looking for an answer.
Have only just installed GrabBee so have not checked out the virus things yet.

Have changed computers since buying my GrabBee product. New computer has XP Service Pack 3 pre-installed.
When I try to install my GBrabBee product the computer asks for XP Service Pack 2 to be installed. Since I can't install SP2 (the computer states SP3 is the newer/better update) I have a major problem installing GrabBee.
Is there a way I can obtain an update from GrabBee that allows me to install it with SP3 in the system?
I cannot obtain a driver anywhere!
Can my GrabBee product be somehow installed using Xp SP2?


Help please.


Ronnie.
