Hi,
>> BTW – have you been able to get the PVR to play sound? I can get it to
record, at least there are .wav files being generated, but I can't get any
sound on playback. Do you have any thoughts or clues on this? <<
RTFM (the Read.me in version 2.00, I think) It's somewhere in the fine
print<g>
I managed to get their V 2.00 and most recent V2.02 (seems like they are
upgrading each week) In both new versions, the file name extensions have been
changed and after you sift thru the confusion, you will find that you must use
their converter program to create an *.AVC file then you get the sound with the
video within PVR. Then……….you must use the converter program to make an
*.AVI file so you can use it outside the PVR software!!! (I think it goes like
that <g>)
Convert, Convert, Convert<G>
Had to return my PVR-serious heat problem where screen turns to green, blue
and brown negative image after a period of use!
It's a great card, only used it a few days worth. Hope this heat problem
is/was a fluke.
I did manage to get through to their (DPS) BBS (416-754-8368). BEWARE- the
updated software is approx. 2Meg and you may lose the connection after you've
downloaded about 1.8M or anything in between<g>-I had to try a total of four
downloads to get 1 each of V2.00 and V 2.02.
[I do not use the internet (yet), I am staying away from Win'95, and can't
afford to try Win NT-you're dealing with a strictly Win 3.1 guy]
V 2.02 seems to have a "3rd party help file" that is impossible to view in any
viewer I have- maybe it's an NT version-Both versions are for both Win 3.1 and
Win NT if I'm not mistaken.
Hope this helps.
Joel
