The capture card I have access to is in a junker PC. No hard drive in it, just a bunch of old I/O cards. With the board in hand, is there a way or sources for software to run the thing by brand or board identification? Does anyone have a software compatibility list and sources by board brand name/number? My OS is Windows 98SE-- about the same generation as the board. Install setup is a Tyan Trinity board. PII 400 MHz.
chances are that it is a conextant bt-8** chipset give this a try http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/download.html or if you can post back a chipset number from the card I will see what I can find
I haven't got the thing in hand yet, but shortly. Will come back with chipset info then. The board was in a home machine so it was maybe a Haupague (whatevs) or an ATI. What sort of software is available for download to set up such things? I'm going to assume it's some kind of prog with a start/stop button to begin and end recording like an audio line in ripper. How is a file type specified such as .avi? Lots of questions on this. I'd prob'ly need a guide or manual to do the physical plugging as well. Thanks for answering
Today I have the capture voard in question and can relate the product details. it is an oldie but a goodie (I hope.) Haupague WinTV (1998) 61381 rev D133 sn 1250526 Connections are: FM TV line out dtv/s vid line in IR Chipset number is IM MSP 3430G-PS-A1 31-HO-PA 068409001 8453' The goal of using this is to capture VHS from a VHS player to a digital file, preferably AVI for use with such programs as Nero Vision Express to record to dvd. I'm a noob at doing any of this. Please tell what I need to get this thing going. So far I have used the product number to find and download the driver.zip for the device. Open source or freeware progs only will be used with this device. Please tell where such programs for this device might be obtained. I will check in with the Haupague site to see if I can learn anything there.
