WONDER® RADEON™ 8500DV with linux

[Viljami]

Hi,
I am quite interested in the possibilities of the WONDER® RADEON™ 8500DV card, and i would like to know before to spend my money for nothing, if this card run with Linux (especially Debian), and if yes, what about the drivers, install,...?
Thanks
Viljami.

I do not think this card will work. If you want to know go to www.ati.com and see if it will work with Linux. I very much do not think it will. There is one linux capture card I have seen made by Pinnacle but do not know how good it
is. Also just a note ATI I have found ati AIW card to be buggy with windows driver's there new driver's have gotten better now that they want more of the gaming market.

If you haven't found it yet, it says it will work and has drivers but, no capturing software.

Capturing software is only available for the TV Wonder cards.

(I feel ashamed, I did not even realise there was a linux forum until now, I even asked about linux in the PC forum )

there is a project called Gatos for the AIW series, I have a 7500 but it does alot better in windows with MMC, look at the PVR-250 or WinTv 401
