I did a number of capture tests today morning, and it seems to me that the 
device is working (almost).
Here my observations so far:

what is working:
    i) the device starts and complete the capture up to the second, and the 
nice thing (I did not noticed before) is the blue light coming on the box 
during the capture
   ii) the screen capture quality on the DVI channel is very good even for the 
bitrate 600kbits and 15 frames/sec
        but for the acceptable video channel quality, the bitrate must be at 
least 2500kbits with 25 frames/sec
  iii) picture-in-picture recording is working fine for:
                    video outside DVI and video inside DVI
       
what is not working:
     i)  the independent streams selection is not working  properly showing 
only one channel, like that:
         when the both channel are selected then Screen is only recorded (not 
Screen and the Camera)
         when the Screen is selected the Video cannel is recorded!  I did this 
test twice to be sure.
         but when Camera is selected the video channel is recorded (so OK).

I would like to have two independent streams recorded and played if this is 
possible.

I have not tested the audio channel yet.     

The main problem still is the long time lag before the processing has started. 
The captured recording are staying in the 'Capturing' table showing the status 
'capturing' (the workflow instance state is PAUSED then).
In one case all jobs have started after 35min, but in another case the jobs 
started after about 45 min or even longer. 

Is it a setup somewhere, which obviously I don't know, that can shorten this 
lag?
There is a warning I am getting frequently, which might be responsible:
   WARN(ScheduleServiceImpl:930)  Could not validate Calendar:  Calendar must 
contain at least one component.

In summary, the EDC is finally working, and the above I believe are minor 
issues that can be easily rectified.

So many thanks to Greg for his work!
