Obtaining an mjpeg capture card


Hi,

Currently in my two PCs that I have - I am using to capture video in one system a 2-year old Matrox G400TV in one system, and in the other system an old BT848 based tuner card. Since neither of these two cards are very new (and the G400TV will not do capture under a 2.6 linux kernel, the drivers are still being written; the BT848 card dosen't do very well at anything above 320x200 or so) I was wondering if anyone knew of a reasonably priced MJPEG video capture card that is at least as good as the old Matrox G400TV (Full PAL video capture, 25fps, no framedrop) and that works under linux that could replace these older cards. Does anyone know where I could get hold of any such card (I am in the UK btw).

I am currently running Mandrake 10 on both systems.

Thanks for any help,

Slothpuck
