Sorry, I was referring to my original spec which referred to 2 streams at 1024 x 768 at 1:5 compression ratio and 50Hz over 10s = 157MBytes. My primary concern, however, is the possbility for two cards to co-exist; and the availability of linux drivers. Can anyone suggest a solution? Thanks for your help!

The compression scheme must be fairly quick to decode. 10 seconds into 200Mb, thats not really a challenge for anything, even mjpeg software or hardware. Mpeg is typically stuffing 10+ minutes of video into 200Mbytes. Shouldn't be a problem to do that mpeg in software _______________________________________________ Video4linux-list mailing list Video4linux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
