- I am aware of one other board - just released for the Amiga. I've got
- information and prices on it.
-
- Could *anyone* with any information, reviews, or prices on any JPEG/MPEG video
- (+audio?) boards that you can develop software for, for an IBM/PC email to me
- the info? I'm looking for a board that has a combo of framegrabber + at or
- near real-time JPEG (de)compression that can write info to either disk or
- memory. Thanx in advance.
