Re: Help for Pinnacle PCTV 800i (no sound options)

This card does not have an audio cable. Like the SAA713X Philips Card.

I can get sound and audio from iUVRC.

Do I need to use Crossbar for Audio? Download a special driver? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: What Card is Best?

I used watchdog feature for CCTV Capture cards. It is a small cable that attaches to the reset jumper on the PC (subsituting the reset switch). If the software does not respond in XXX milliseconds it reboots the PC. Very handy if you have a PC that needs to remain up 100%.

Thanks!!

What Card is Best?

Howdy All,

I am building a PC to show a combination of advertisements (Flash, SWF) and TV (VLC). I've had partial success with cheaper cards.

What is the best and most stable card for VLC? Do any of them have a watchdog feature?

Thanks!! VLC Rocks!

Re: Pink pixels when resizing

I think my issue is with my video card or DirectX. I do not get this issue with Vista

When I run a DXDIAG (DirectX diagnostics) I see this error

Direct3D functionality not available. You should verify that the driver is a final version from the hardware manufacturer.

Any suggestions?

Re: Deinterlace for 720 x 480 does not work

No. I get the same error. The viewer stops showing video and does not reurn.

but... If I use DirectX 3D I get less interlacing as using DirectX. This will work.
