Title: x10 camera on AHP without VA11A
Post by: pvignola on May 05, 2009, 12:09:10 PM

I have a Pinnacle capture card and a Dazzle USB capture device.  Will either of these work with AHP and an x10 cam?  I ask because the system is USB 1.1 and the VA11A requires USB 2.  I know I could get a USB 2 card for my PC but I wanted to find out if either of my capture devices will work with AHP and the iWitness plug in.

Short and too the point no, u most use 3 party software as x10 will not see any other hardware.

I use a Pinnacle myself.... but not for X10 (astrothug is correct). But... it could very well be that some of you USB ports are 2.0 and some are 1.0.  You may only need to check your USB's... and move some things around.

I have an old ATI all inwonder 128 capture card and AHP / iWatchOut sees it by bug and accident. TV and camera video will run in the window for about 1 hour then BANG! BSOD. Everytime.

I thought I was home free but sadly no.

See it here while it ran.
