Hello, I have not used the Duo or Quattro cards from Videum. But, I have used 3 of the 1000 VO plus cards in a Dual Xeon system. These cards work great. Best of all, they're 3.3 volt compatable. With all three cards running full tilt, the display service, and the rat running audio I'm still only using about 55% of the 4 cpu threads available. (With the hyperthreading and 2 CPUs you get 4 execution threads). This system is running both the 2.2 and 1.2 AG software on Windows XP. I'm running a two projector and one console display subsystem. The console is run using the motherboard video subsytem and the two projectors are driven (using DVI video cables) by a PNY NVS 400. The only gotcha is that I don't know how to set the video resolution default to CIF. The vic encoders insist on starting up in 320x240 mode. So, at the start of a session, I have to manually change the resolution of the capture driver in vic. Hubert

Hello everyone, We would like to see if it is possible to set up an AG node using a single dual-Xeon Windows PC. We would like to use a Winnov Videum Quattro capture card to capture the S-video from 3 PTZ cameras plus a document camera. The AG node in the U-M Media Union has separate linux boxes for video capture, and a Windows PC for display only, and they've never tried out the Duo or Quattro cards. Has anybody used these cards on a Windows PC, and does it work? I'd be happy for any advice/comments. Thanks

Jeremy Herr
