Completely off-topics, you guys are my last hope - vin97 - 08-18-2016

Is there any way to only give harddrive access to specific processes in Win7?
I am programming an automic capture tool to record HDTV losslessly. My harddrive is fast enough but as soon as it gets one additional I/O command from another process, the capture tool will have to drop frames because the disk cannot keep up.

GL. Records about 1 hour and that thing, even if a TB, may be full. There is a reason compression exists.

I am using compression (ULH0). The result is ~19MB/s@720p50.

Use a buffer and save stream the buffer to the disk. This allows for the transfer to be slowed with out harm.

stupid question but how do I use a buffer when capturing with virtualdub (or any tool for that matter)?
