Hi All

Has anybody got BGT 3540 S-Video input working in MP.

Works in black gold application, picture quality not too bad, could probably improve in MP.

If possible to use input would give card 5 channel capability.

I suspect, (but I am not certain), that the SVideo input does not have a hardware encoder. So you might need a software encoder to convert PAL input signal to MPEG etc.


Maybe this is the problem.
