The ProMovieStudio is no longer being sold, but it is a very popular card. The mvpms driver delivers video frames in YUV (default) and 16 bit RGB formats. The mvpms driver is mostly for use with the MBONE conferencing tool "nv", though using it to capture still photos is still possible. nv's frame speed varied from 1 fps in 320x240 to 7 fps at 160x120 on a 16 MHz 386, to 10 fps in 320x240 to 20 fps at 160x120 on a 90 MHz Pentium computer. The mvpms driver kit can be found at: ftp://joy.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/pub/mvpms-1.0.tgz Warning: I was unable to get good looking colors from the ProMovieStudio card that I borrowed to write this driver. You may be able to tweak the chromance and hue to get better colors than I did. I chose to use the card in monochrome mode to increase the speed MBONE tool "nv".

It is based heavily on the existing EtherLink III driver (if_ep.c) by Herb Peyerl, Andres Vega Garcia, Serge Babkin, et al. This driver should be suitable as a basis for supporting the Fast EtherLink 100Mbps cards; the transciever detection logic needs to be extended to include the new transceivers. This driver does not take advantage of the bus-mastering features of the card. I will likely not have time in the near future to remedy the situation. As usual, this software is supplied with no warranties. My modifications to the code are in the public domain; I request but do not require that you leave my name in the files. To use this driver, you need to have the kernel source code available. You need to download the files if_vx.c and if_vxreg.h into your /usr/src/sys/pci directory, add the line pci/if_vx.c optional vx device-driver somewhere in the file /usr/src/sys/conf/files, add the line device vx0 at pci0 port? irq? vector vxintr to your kernel configuration file, and rebuild your kernel. These files may be obtained from my Web page at http://www.owlnet.rice.edu/~fgray/if_vx.html I welcome your comments and suggestions. By the way, I have added a GlobalReset command to the attach sequence for the driver, which should fix the main bug reported for the if_ep.c driver. -- Fred Gray -- fgray@owlnet.rice.edu
