Someone just ask me if the Omnimedia card which sells for $299 works with the meteor driver. The answer is yes. I have several Omnimedia cards something like 5 or so and I plug in and plug out the Omnimedia or the Meteor in with no hazzles or problems. The only problem that I know of is that the Meteor is a full length PCI card and the OmniMedia P1SC is a half-size PCI card so on machines that I run FreeBSD and I need two video capture boards I install the P1SC. The Meteor has a nice programming library for Win95 and Win NT and the P1SC is mostly for Win 3.1 and Win95. The Meteor sells for $499 The P1SC sells for $299 more info at http://www.omt.com Recently, I ordered the Intel Smart Video Recorder III which sells for $199 . This is just a dump video capture board -- I have no clue what it is yet in terms of components so as soon as I get my hands on it, I will be happy to report back to the group. Enjoy, Amancio
