      CyberMail Video Capture Card

      i have a cybermail AV PCI video capture card but no software for it i am trying to find drivers for WinXP to make the card work here's the specs on it
      Rockwell Bt878/879KHF Chipset.
      * Full Motion Video Capture.
      * DirectX support.
      * Sizable capture up to 640x480 resolution.
      * Supports 16, 24, or 32-bit color.
      * Capture up to 30 fps.
      * Supports NTSC, PAL, PAL N, and SECAM video and television standards as well as - ITU-TH.324 and H.26 compression and decompression standards.

      quote from here by herbert i think

      JHebert reported October 21 2001 that:
      Compatibility: Win95? Win98? Win2K? WinXP? NT4? MAC? Linux? - Rated: 9 of 10.

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      This has to be the best value in a BT878 capture
      card. I got it for $15 at ComputerGeeks including
      software and drivers. The capture quality is at least
      as good as other BT8x8 cards like WinTV or
      Pinnacle etc. The included drivers worked OK in
      Win98 but were limited to 352x240 at 29.97fps. I
      downloaded a newer set of VFW drivers from
      Askey that are compatible with the CyberMail card.
      The link is
      http://www.askey.com/html/driver1.html#TV and the
      filename is tv424.zip . With these drivers I can now
      capture 640x480 or 720x480 at 29.97fps with no
      frames dropped using either Huffyuv or PicVideo
      MJPEG (Q19).
      There is also a "tweaked" universal WDM driver for
      BT878 cards in WinME, Win2k, and WinXP that is
      compatible with the Cyber card. It is available at
      http://www.iulab.com .
      My system is a P3 733 with 256MB RAM on a Tyan
      S1854 Trinity 400 with VIA 133A chipset and a
      single 60GB 7200rpm Ultra66 hard drive.

      the tweaked version from iulab.com seems to work altho its not a signed driver for XP.. so far no yellow ?'s or !'s in device manager and evrything says device is working properly....altho i did have to enter the driver for each device on the card one at a time, including the codecs......so far all appears to be fine but i will know more when i get an s video adapter and connect my camera
