QNX Frame Grabber Support...

I looked on QNX’s web site, and didn’t see any mention of any frame
grabbers supported by QNX. I know this can’t be true, so…

Can anyone recommend frame grabbers which can be used with QNX? I know
of one company already, but am looking for multiple video input support,
such as 4 to 8 composite video (NTSC/PAL) inputs.

There may be more drivers for 4 to 8 input frame grabbers with Linux
support, so this would be acceptable if I have access to the source code
for Linux drivers.

Thanks for any recommendations…

most cheap frame grabbers with Brooktree Bt848 chip for home PCs have
one of the chip’s four inputs wired to a TV tuner directly on the
board, leaving three external inputs.
MATRIX Vision (http://www.matrix-vision.de/) has two families of frame
grabbers with Bt848 chip (MVdelta and MVsigma), each PCI card with 4
inputs. Phytec’s (http://www.phytec.de/ or http://www.phytec.com/)
Bt848 based grabbers (available as PCI, C-PCI and PC/104plus cards)
have got 9 video inputs.

All these cards should run with our QNX4 driver, initially developed
for our own use. Please contact me directly for more info on the
driver.

http://www.imagenation.com/ is supported by QNX, but I haven’t tracked down
a driver for NTO. The PXC200 has 4 inputs and if I remember correctly it is
based on the BT848. I have it running under NT and will eventually get it up
on NTO.
If anyone can help with that I’d very much appreciate it. There is a driver
for linux which I might have a look at one evening…
