Hi,

today at a localstore I found a PCI frame grabber based (from the
picture on the box) on the Bt848. The board is called WinTV/PC
model 406 from Hauppauge and seems to have info available on the
net at

    http://www.hauppauge.com/hcw/index.htm

(this is the model which does not support an optional MPEG board, the
picture is at http://www.hauppauge.com/hcw/html/wc_data.htm#Overview)

Anyone knows something about this board ?

For the records, the board, with a built-in tuner and teletext
decoder -- unless it is decoded in software! -- is sold for Itl.
403.000 incl.VAT. -- approx US$250; on the same shelf there is a
Snappy for approx US$330, so I think it might be found a bit cheaper
than this.

Amancio, any resemblance with the Intel board you have ?

	Luigi
