Geovision and Windows API

Recommended Posts

Hi all. I have a question maybe its stupid but i must know anyhow... As i see the geovision cards does not privide Drivers that can be used on softwares that uses Windows API to connect to the standard devices, lets say cant use geovision cards with standard Windows video editing software Adobe Premiere for example. Can this be done with some driver wrappers or some other tehnique to do that. !

 

Thanks for the answer or the further reading FAQs or similar...

Are you trying to track down the codecs? Or are you trying to make Geovision work with other hardware?

No, you're not going to get it to do that. Some of it is limitations in the applications you describe, some of it is the card. But why would you even want to do that when there is cheaper hardware for those tasks?

Hi...

 

Yes i can see that this is the problem, even Geovision support said that this can not be done... Please name at least One that card with 4 imputs that can do that if you have that info. I did not found any... Pinacle offers some USB devices that cant do the job and hase no such amount of imputs !

To the best of my knowledge none of the capture cards would allow you to do that.

 

What are you trying to do, and why do you think that using capture cards is the way to do it?

Actually I can get the basic GV250's and GV650's to work with apps like skype. But generally I dont see the point, there are other cheaper methods of video capture for that type of thing. I only did it because i wanted to use AmCap to capture the raw video for testing the cards at the time.
