I will try again as I only superficially worked with this encoder and I may have done something stupid. My definition: [code]<capturecard commercialname="Dvico FusionHDTV Dual (Analog)" capturename="FusionHDTV, WDM Video Capture" devid="ven_14f1&dev_8800&subsys_db5018ac&rev_05"> <capabilities tv="true" radio="false" mpeg2="true" mce="true" sw="false" bda="false"></capabilities> <tv> <interface cat="encoder" video="" audio="" mpeg2="0"></interface> <filters> <filter cat="tvtuner" name="FusionHDTV, NTSC/ATSC WDM TvTuner" checkdevice="true"></filter> <filter cat="tvaudio" name="FusionHDTV, TvAudio" checkdevice="true"></filter> <filter cat="crossbar" name="FusionHDTV, Crossbar" checkdevice="true"></filter> <filter cat="capture" name="FusionHDTV, WDM Video Capture" checkdevice="true"></filter> <filter cat="encoder" name="Dvico MPEG-2 Video Encoder 0009" checkdevice="true"></filter> </filters> <connections> <connection sourcefilter="tvtuner" sourcepin="1" sinkfilter="tvaudio" sinkpin="0"></connection> <connection sourcefilter="tvtuner" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="crossbar" sinkpin="1"></connection> <connection sourcefilter="tvaudio" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="crossbar" sinkpin="4"></connection> <connection sourcefilter="crossbar" sourcepin="0" sinkfilter="capture" sinkpin="0"></connection> <connection sourcefilter="capture" sourcepin="1" sinkfilter="encoder" sinkpin="0"></connection> </connections> </tv> </capturecard>[/code] I have tried several iterations of the above without any success.

Unless I misunderstand what I'm reading here, the composite input (or the WDM Video Capture) is a software device. Secondly and more importantly, the FAILED to connect Encoder->mpeg2 demuxer message. I have attempted to use graphedit to connect the encoder to a demuxer (any of the ones that I could find) without success. [b]My questions[/b]: Does MP 0.2 RC4 support the Dvico FusionHDTV composite in or should I stay on 0.1.3? Can anyone see anything obviously wrong with my card definition or have any suggestions for improvement? Does MP see this device as a hardware encoding device and should I make changes to the definition file? Should I just give up, get the info that Califo has suggested and send it off (basically, am I just spinning my wheels)? [/QUOTE]
