Hmm well I will be using industry standard video source in my application, so I guess PAL 720 x 576. But quality is paramount (along with everything else ;-) >V4L and V4L2 is the usual video API. bttv is a well-developed driver for >these APIs, supporting most "non-intelligent" capture cards like the >Hauppage etc. See www.bytesex.org. > >Around also is the Kfir card - www.linuxtv.org.

I have one of these too and it is very easy on your CPU, but >MJPEG makes mega-large files compared to MPEG. May not be a problem provided it meets the spec. Cheap on CPU time is good, as I said I'll need access to the stream in almost-raw (i.e. cheap to decompress) format. Is the DC10+ a high-end pro card? Again, thanks for all yr help!
