Hi David, thanks for the reply.



Last night I closed Geovision to see if that made a difference but it did
not. I was going to re-boot the server without running Geovision to see if
that made a difference, still no joy.



I did also look in device manager for the card and noticed its
absence!......



As I had to be at work at 05:00 I thought I had best go to bed at that
stage..



I will look at the Geovision website again and see if they can be used as
IP
devices, that could be very interesting. I will also see if there is anyway
I can get Windows drivers..



Thanks again and if you find out anything else please please let me know..
You guy's are way more knowledgeable than I will ever be!

Hi Brian,

For the IP camera option to work then your Geovision software must be
running and must be configured to output as an IP camera stream (assuming
that Geovision can do this - my very quick scan of the Geovison website
hinted that it could, depending on your hardware/software).

OTOH, to try to use the Geovision hardware I imagine that you should try
without the Geovision software running so it doesn't grab the camera card.
There would need to be Windows drivers for the card installed as well - if
Geovision does not install drivers then I doubt you can use the hardware.
On
my computer I can see my camera card in the device manager under
sound/video
devices as a set of 4 video capture devices. I vaguely recall I could use 1
input on the card before I got the multi-camera support licence option.

Apologies if the above is obvious.

Cheers

David
