I am getting a heck of a lot of problems with my setup at the moment... the card runs hot, and i'm getting these glitches all over my videos sometimes.. I picked the PVR-250 after considering the Vidac Vmagic... I was wondering if you supported their Vmagic tv card

[a collection of comments on the card]

Its not quite but nearly twice the price of the pvr-250 and is a pain to order (money transfer before order or something) .. it doesn't do stereo yet but a new card out in summer will be NTSC compatible and do nicam stereo...

I was wondering if SageTV could work with it... what are the requirements for a card to be supported by SageTV? I can ask Vidac directly and the helpful guy who runs the forum in the 2nd link above... what interfaces do you require ... a video for windows driver...

I may try to see if i can get the guy on that forum to test out your program with his card.. that'd help..

Thanks for your time

twice the price more like 3x if where buy in US dallor some like $450 but they don't even support NTSC rigth now.
SageTV need WDM spec not the VFW stuff
