[AG-TECH] Video Capture Card Misery

[Nagykaldi, Zsolt F. (HSC)]

Thanks for all of your feedback on the video capture card.
 
Another $100 question: Let's say that I am in the NCSA lobby. Using the same venue client setup, I am not getting any incoming video in bridged unicast (vic will sit there forever waiting). Incoming audio is fine and others can see and hear me. Now if I switch to multicast (multicast works only with the AG connector for us), I can see and hear everybody, but nobody can see me or hear me. This does not make sense to me.

As to the drivers you want installed, the VFW drivers (which are older) will
appear as multiple distinct devices to vic, and avoid the problem of having to
switch the source each time you change venues.
