Multichannel VC440e capture card for WEB Cameras

[FarmerCharlie 0]

I have been looking for a 4-channel card for WEB camera streaming. I have an Avermedia NV3000 which works fine for surveillance, but not for separate WEBCam streams from 4 cameras. Until now I used two Diamond VC500 and VC600 USB cards in each of two separate computers, and split the camera video to feed both the NV3000 and the four Diamond cards. My new Windows 7 computer won't work with either the Diamond cards or WindowsMediaEncoder, so I am now down to only two WEB cameras.

 

Today I found a four-channel capture card that I thought might replace the USB capture cards. The card is a VC440e by Webcam Corp. (http://www.webcamsoft.com/en/vc440e.html). Does anyone have experience with these or other similar cards? The company does also have surveillance software, but I'm not sure it is as sophisticated as the Avermedia software, so I would probably continue with the NV3000 or maybe an NC5000 in the same computer or a different computer if necessary.

Thanks,

Charles
