V4L/V4L2 drivers written for the BT848 chipset will work with this card, also works with dvr.sourceforge.net application. The P400HC is under development, scheduled for release November 2001, and is a 4-port hardware compression-based MJPEG video capture card (ZR36060 chipset). Pictioneers will be releasing an open source V4L2 driver for the P400HC. http://www.pictioneers.com/ |

| SANE (scanner interface) | Conrad Parker conradp@cse.unsw.edu.au John Ferlito johnf@inodes.org | Conrad and John, in an incredible feat of midnight engineering, have created a SANE backend that uses the V4L2 API, which makes your video capture card look like a scanner. What this means is you can capture images from a video capture card using any program that can get images from a scanner, for example, the GIMP, and scanimage. http://www.inodes.org/sane-v4l2/ |

If you are working on a V4L2 related project, or considering adding V4L2 support to your project, you should consider getting on the list. It can help you find others willing to contribute to your project, find people interested in your project who would like to test and use it, find people working on related projects who would like to coordinate their efforts with yours.
To get on the list send me (bdirks@pacbell.net) an email with what you would like to say and any links you would like to have here. If you would like to make a change, or if I made a mistake, or if you want to be removed, just email and I will take care of it as soon as possible.
