Bryan, I have a Bt848KPF video capture card that came with my 3Com BigPicture Vidcam. I did a little research on it and found that the Brooktree chipset on the card is very compatible under Linux. I can see on the card that it was made by Hauppage. I no longer care to use the Webcam that came with it, but instead use the card for retrieving video from my VHS-C recorder. Did you have to make any adjustments or configurations in MDK 9.0 after you installed it for it to work? Does KWinTV work well for video retrieval and editing?

I have connected a camera to the composite input of my Hauppage WinTV and grabbed stills using KWinTV. *************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 8.0 Professional KDE 3.0.0 KMail 1.4 This is a Microsoft-free computer Bryan S.
