Hi,
Not sure whether this is really "off topic" or not as this is really about the abilities of MP, but couldn't think where else to post. So.....
A question to ask whether anyone has either used - or tried to use - a video capture card as an input to MP.
The thought is that as I simply can't get the Online Videos plugin to work with Amazon Prime (or the BBC iPlayer either) an alternative might be to use an Amazon Fire tv stick (which I already have) but to connect that to a video capture card in order to deliver the video stream into a USB port on a PC rather than to an HDMI port on the TV. Obviously the idea would then be to use that input into MP to display/manage the content as part of the whole MP media management rather than having to switch to using the TV whenever I want to watch media sources not handled by MP.
Any suggestions about how this might be set up as an input source to MP would be appreciated.
