Klaus,
We have no problem using VideoGrabber under Windows XP. It's a basic
component of our program. All aspects of it work perfectly. Quicktime
works fine. Vdig is not necessary. Files need to be saved
as .avi's... NOT .mov's on a PC. We use Unibrain firewire cameras
(www.unibrain.com). I can give you specific coding if you want it.

C'mon! Noone ever tried the Video Grabber on a PC???
I haven't but I have looked into it a bit. Be aware that using
video capture with QuickTime on Windows is not fun.
Ha, the understatement of the year :-D
Actually it hard-crashes REV every time I try.
Very few (if any?) cameras will work with QuickTime on Windows.
One interesting thing to note is that QuickTime Pro for Mac
supports video capture but not QuickTime Pro for Windows. It has
to do with the technology that QT uses for video capture.
You can look at http://www.vdig.com/WinVDIG/index.html if you
really need to use QT capture on Windows.
If you end up using VFW (I think directx works as well but I don't
think it is documented) with the video grabber then you may have
to support QT/MCI playback for Windows. This isn't too bad if you
create a wrapper library to branch between using the built-in
player or the equivalent MCI commands.
Thanks alot for this very useful info!
