Unknown Pinnacle Capture Card

[Signal]

Hello all,

I've often lurked here searching through and finding some great information.
I'm hoping maybe someone can help with this one.

I rescued this card from being thrown away and it could turn out it may not be worth it.
I'm curious nonetheless.

It came out of a "Blossom Video" system which looks to have been a company that at one time offered turnkey editing systems.

This card was made by Pinnacle but no helpful information on the card can be found.
The circuit board and date on the chips indicate it's 1998 vintage/design.

It has a breakout box that looks to have been used on several Pinnacle models and includes XLR and RCA Audio, S-Video, Composite, Component, and "Serial Digital Video" input and outputs.

Seems to have been a pretty beefy card for it's time.

I tried the Internet Wayback Machine site and Blossom apparently blocked all access so their site was never captured and well, since pictures are rarely grabbed for the archive the Pinnacle Systems site isn't much help.

Here are a couple of pictures (not sure how to upload multiple photos yet):

Does it have a FCC ID number on it? Sometimes you can do a search by that. But it might not get you any new info. https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm

And welcome to our forums.

Unfortunately there is no FCC ID.

Doing a generic search between 01/1997 and 12/1998 doesn't yield any info other than the basic application data on 3 items.

Good try though and a good resource to know.
Thanks!

Anyone else?
