Me too!
I have 2 TV capture cards and 2 HDMI capture cards that do not work properly. But uninstall “avast free” to make it back to normal.
Win7 64bit

I have this issue too with all my medical device cameras.

Some Japanese users reported similar issues too.

Turning the program to “Passive Mode” should be a workaround to the issue. However, this is simply disabling the program, not resolving the issue. There are multiple threads on this.
