Product Description

From the Manufacturer
Hauppauge's WinTV is a single-slot PCI board for your PC that allows you to watch TV in a window on your PC screen. WinTV processes the video without requiring help from your PC's CPU so your computer continues to run at full speed while WinTV is operating.

The WinTV application has excellent features, such as channel surf, single-click no-title mode, and always-on-top mode, making WinTV easy to use. Work on other applications while simultaneously watching TV in a window from the 125-channel, cable-ready TV tuner. WinTV also displays video from a VCR, camcorder, or any other video source.

Add impact to your desktop publishing and Web design with WinTV and Hauppauge's exclusive SnapShot application. You can quickly capture and save video images. Capture 24-bit still images in TIFF, JPEG, and BMP file formats in color or black and white. Incorporate saved still images into desktop publishing and Web design.

You can also videoconference over the Internet. WinTV is a video digitizer and can be used with Internet videoconferencing applications like Microsoft's NetMeeting (included with Windows 98), CUSeeMe, and more. Using a camcorder or video camera, you can videoconference with your friends and family right on your PC.

Hauppauge's WinTV Capture application lets you create digital movies in the Microsoft AVI file format. Capture video clips from TV, VCR, or camcorder and incorporate them into your multimedia presentations.

WinTV is compatible with a number of third-party applications, including WinDVR, a digital recorder application from InterVideo; SnapStream, a streaming video application; and Viewtopia, a multibrowser from PointNine. WinTV can also be used with popular public domain software such as DScaler.

Product Description
The WinTV PCI is a digital video in-lay board with TV, image and clip capture plus Intercast data or Teletext data reception. A bus-master PCI slot is required, plus a VGA card with DirectDraw 3.0 (or later) and Windows 95. In addition to displaying live video in a window, individual video images and video clips can be digitized and stored to disk. Live video is digitized from either the built-in 125-channel cable TV tuner or an external video-input source using high quality 4:2:2 video sampling. The digitized video is sent over the PCI bus in your PC into the memory of your VGA display adapter. This allows the digitized video to move efficiently, and takes a fraction of the available bandwidth of the PCI bus.
