Hi all, My workplace has recently acquired hardware that we can use to setup CCRT to moniter the shop, however i know nothing about CCRT really and am look for some advice on what needs to be bought (if at all) and also what software i would need. I have serverly PCs capable of encoding video, but i am not sure on a few things A) What OS is better to use for this my first thought would be linux or unix but this also depends on what type of software is best as well but Windows 98SE xp PRO B) Is a ATI 9000 Pro cable of recording from a S-Video CCRT cam C) What software should i use to record the Cam Feed Any Suggestions would be great, this forum looks like it has a great comunity. and thanks for any help in advance
