Hello,

 

I also have one of the wave-p cards with the philips saa chipset.

I had some limtied success with the reference drivers which you can find on google however the machine bluescreened after a reboot so i dont recommend it.

 

I have also spoken with wave-p, guy called Ray, nice guy... He confirms that theres no WDM drivers available and its not planned however he did say that the card will have an api available at some point.

 

For the time being were stuck with the sorry excuse of software that it comes with.. Well not me.. im working on a refund from scan atm.

ok, i've had some success with the Saa7130 card, also most any wdm driver to suit that chip seams to work for me, minus the TV tuner function.

try cap7134 (been running for a few days now, all ok)

 

the othe card (TW6802). forget it. i did try using GM68cap & TW68dvr drivers but it only gave me three channels, black & white and a lockup.

 

 

i've now ordered some BT878 chip cards and i already have the drivers for these.

 

be interested in anyone elses experinces...

I had a breakthru last night. Some CCTV software called Harmony CCTV has Philips made drivers - think for a TV Card. These work 100% perfectly on Windows Home Server (Win2003) and are available with the trial install. Im guessing the drivers are not trail

 

So now iCatcher, ActiveWebCam, LuxRiot etc all work fine

 

Hope that helps someone else.

Will post a link later.
