No Marvel/RR-G capture under BeOS

[gibverse]

Although the OS itself won’t be released for another few hours, Be has an updated hardware compatibility list out already (updated March 27, 2000). And alas, no Marvel/RR-G is listed on this revised list. Looks like we need to wait for third party support.

See: http://www.be.com/support/guides/beo...l#videocapture

One special note, the Marvel G400-TV is listed above as a video card, just nothing listed under capture devices.

Well, Be isn't horrible about updates. The last update (4.5.2) gave users drivers for the Soundblaster Live, before that update, I wasn't able to use my Live at ALL.

And Im not sure what kind of arrangement they have, but I notice that a lot of features in BeOS 5 *USED* to be third party add ons, like the CDDA Filesystem addon which allows users to treat CD audio tracks as wave files (directly. You could play an audio CD with a wave player with this addon/feature, or copy the track instead of recording it analogue(which means watching the levels) or downloading and opening a seperate program to rip it for you).
