It was designed on 4.x, nowdays running on 4.10 and using a video capture card with a Brooktree 484 chipset. The capture function is copied from the meteor example. Now I am requested to port that application to 25 new boxes. Ideally I'd love to locates hardware that work with the existing software but I will never be able to find bktr 484 card. And the solution must be cheap (so firewire may not be the solution). I cannot spend too much time testing so would prefer to stick to 4.10, and certainly cannot spend money on a solution that may not work. I am looking for any advice in the USB direction or traditionnal PCI video capture card. best regards, Olivier
