Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Wow. Amancio was referring to http://telepresence.dmem.strath.ac.uk ? A question, how much power one can draw from the special s-video connector of the Hauppauges, few Watts ? That would make a neat setup, one single cable only, containing the video, power and control lines, few meters long. At the end a camera with positioning servos controlled by i2c solenoid driver and feedback from 4-channel i2c A/D. If the commercial camera from Hauppauge draws power from the s-video (?), then it must be sturdy enough to handle small servos too, at least if not driven concurrently ?
