The Smart Video Recorder III is the new intel PCI video capture board which lists for $200 and it is supposed to work with the Pentium PRo. The card has one chipset the BrookTree 848 8) What I am wondering is if any one is working on a device driver for the card? If so please let me know. I just got the databook for the BrookTree 848 and I am thinking about writing a device driver for the card. From what I can tell the hardest part is going to be to write a program to control the dma risc engine. Unlike traditional dma chipset dma instructions the 848 executes dma by running a dma program from the host's memory. At any rate, it looks like a nice video capture board and it is cheap. Enjoy, Amancio
