well.. solved the "shrinking"/"flickering" issue. apparently, if i try and put the card to capture at anything above 1.5 fps, this is what happens. i set the max fps to 1, and now the card is just fine, working along at ~1.3 fps (why is this difference?). thx for everything guys. i'll come back if ...
