4 Chip 4 Port Capture Card UK

Post by sav_darlo »

After struggling with one of the cheap cards off Ebay I finally bought a 4 chip card from the following UK supplier. It was detected automatically by Suse 9.2 as a Provideo 104 and works a treat. The customer service was great too.

Hope this helps

Hi,

Just wondering if any of you finally got this card working or not. I have tried two OSes RH4 and the new CTU ZM distro. Still a blank blue screen.
