Help identify dual head PCI card

[simonhowson]

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone can help me identify the Matrox card at this link:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1319146874

Thank you very much for ANY assistance one can provide. Even if they can
simply narrow it down to a few cards.

How many different types of Dual Head PCI cards did Matrox release?
How much RAM does it look like this card has? 4 X 4 MB = 16 MB? Or 4 X 2 MB
= 8 MB?

Post, ICQ and e-mail any hints if possible, the auction ends soon...


Thanks,

That is NOT a DualHead card, it's difficult to tell from that picture but it looks like a Millennium II to me.

Yes I think you are right,

Thank you for your help...

What is the other connector though?

[Tempest]

If it is like the one on my Millennium 1, it is called the "Media XL media adapter connector"... I think there were more than one kind of Media XL add-on cards that could be plugged in instead of the memory expansion board. They had features like frame and/or video grabbing and MPEG acceleration... Or something like that.
Edit: BTW the card looks pretty much like a 4 meg Millennium 1 to me (except the little white box with the DIP switches is wider than usual) ?

The Mill I had a Media XL and a Media XL mpeg add on card. Both did frame grabs and rgb captures but the Media XL mpeg had hardware acceleration playback of mpeg movies.

If that card is a Mill II, then the other connector is used for the RRS add on capture card's break out cable.
