Pinnacle PCTV works with Windows 2000!

[sbourgeo]

Some people had reported problems getting this working, but I was able to get it installed with no problems.

Hopefully this info will help someone:

Dell Precision 420 workstation
Windows 2000 Professional SP2

Installed DirectX 8.x patches.
Installed version 4.0.2 drivers from cdrom.
Installed 4.0.2b patch from pinnaclesys.com
Installed PCTV app.

I was able to watch and capture video with the bundled software as well as with VirtualDub. Not too bad for $40.

I was able to install without problems, but when I tried capturing using VirtualDub, there was no option to capture in 352x240 resolution, instead I only see 352x288, 640x480
and some smaller resolutions.
Any suggestions?
