I have a small and cheap Sony "Z-cam" or whatever is called (approx cigarette-box size) which works reasonably well. As for capture card, if you need only video capture and no tuner, I have seen a cheap grabber-only card from Avermedia (www.avermedia.com) which sells for about US$65. Still based on the Bt848 i.e. supprted by FreeBSD. luigi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
