Dear Jonathan, I'm not sure of what you mean with "the is not detected". If it wasn't, you'd be unable to see a /dev/video0 entry.
Mind you, the automatic entries in the /dev directory are not stable between reboots, and depending on which driver loads first you may end up with the Epiphan in video0 or video1 (or any other videoXXX combination). In theory, the CA install scripts create stable symlinks for these devices (so, for instance, /dev/screen will always point to the Epiphan device, no matter which videoX device it is). Anyway, even though your card *is* detected, it may still be nonfunctional. You can check (among other methods) by typing: > gst-launch v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! autovideosink If it doesn't work, maybe demsg can provide some logs of what happened. If it works, then it's a matter of configuring Matterhorn correctly, i.e. making sure that in $FELIX_HOME/etc/services/org.opencastproject.capture.agent.impl.ConfigurationManager.properties, the src property of your Epiphan card entry is pointing to the right device. Hope it helps.
