Hello FreeBSD-Hackers, I have 3 cards to be given away, $129 value. There is a catch -- you need t= o volunteer to port the card to FreeBSD and make your modifications publica= lly available. Join and contribute to an open source effort to enable Video= 4Linux drivers to run on BSD here: http://video4bsd.sourceforge.net/ You will need: - Access to NTSC/ATSC broadcast signals. (US, Canada, S.Korea, ..). - A FreeBSD development system - Also, a Linux development system with Video4Linux and full kernel source = for reference might be helpful. The HD-5500 Hi Definition Television PCI Card is an universal PCI 2.2 compl= iant card. The card receives NTSC, ATSC and Cable/QAM Signals and converts = them to digital streams which are transported across the PCI bus. Display a= nd MPEG2 decoding are done on the host computer in software and displayed o= n the computers monitor.
