Re: [OT] anyone got a TV card for sale?

["Philip Coombes" <philip.coombes@xxxxxxx>]

It appears from the Trust site that this card is based around the BT878
chipset so it should work with any Linux application that uses the bttv.o
driver.

The only downsides I think are it seems to be limited to 320x240 and I
think
only has one capture device on board so the more cameras you put on the
slower the frame rate.

Other than that it looks like it should work!

Phil,
