Since lots of people have been asking for a list of capture cards and other input devices know to work with VLC, a wiki page has been started
here (in the VideoLAN wiki). Please add hardware you know to work with VLC.
Thanks,

It just seems to shut down when you try to play the stream.

Hauppauge WintTV-HVR1100 DVB-T/Hybrid works with VLC.
But VLC sometime crashes. So my dream of a streamingserver is clouded.

Well you could add it at the end of that wiki page in a seperate section (telling what you tried to make it work)

Both of my Mini-DV camcorders work on Windows through dshow://, although I can only get one of them to work at a time, since they both appear to have the same name to VLC.

Yes, the Logitech Quickcam on Windows XP Home works fine. The quality is crap but it's a cheap camera.
Sony USB cameras, that have usb streaming option. My camcorder Sony Digital8 DCR-TRV280 NTSC, when captured and played locally the resolution is very, very small, (somewhere along the lines of 100x80). When using Sony's program it is at 600x600 something like that. (4:3 or 16:9)
Microsoft LifeCam 6000 is OK

My terratec cinergy XS (USB - dual analog & DVB-t) works under windows.
DVB-T is just fine, directshow has a long standing bug with localized tuners and I can't have it finding all the channels for my country code (I'm in Italy and it just scans 10 channels) but this is a windows bug.

Hauppauge WinTV streams for days just fine. I can also stream a Dazzle Hollywood DV-Bridge and a Logitech Quick Cam Web, all using Windows XP Pro SP 2.

scientific atlanta SA8300HD cablebox.
I rip content I have recorded on my DVR that is provided by my cable company.
I do this using the firewire port on the back of the box, and connect to my PC. I used the drivers available with firestb (google it if u need them) so Windows XP recognizes my cablebox.
Then I record the mpeg streams onto my PC with VLC, which is the only program I have found that works.
I am still working out all the kinks of converting formats around without losing quality once I have the raw stream, but I am making good progress thanks to this software.
