I am trying to get the geovision GV-1480 card to work in zoneminder.

I have decided to convert from windows XP to a linux zoneminder rig. I installed the latest ZMlarch. I ran a lspci and saw one pci card that might be the one called "Multimedia video controller" but I am not finding any /dev/video devices. I did follow this thread http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=55361 and updated my kernel (by running pacman -Syu), but still the same thing, no /dev/video devices. I would like this work before having to go out abd buy new cards, so if anyone could help that would be much appreciated.
thanks!

Did you try it?
I need a 16 ch 400 fps board, and that one is the only I can get in my country

I too want a 400fps type card that works with linux can someone show us the
lspci -vvv
on it under linux with a v3 kernel
it would be nice to know what the chips say on it. might need some sort of special driver before things start to show. can anyone tell us anything about!?

Is there a 400 fps card ? A link pls ...
