Very Computer

I am starting to plan out a linux box that needs to support a TV Tuner/
Video Capture card and a web cam application. I have done this on Win95 but
never Linux. Anybody have a clue as to what card/driver/application will do
this? I probably will use RedHat unless someone has contrary advise. I also
have leftover ATI PC 2 TV and Aver TVPHONE cards from another project.

As far as I know, there is no application available yet to read the TV input
on video cards.  I have an ATI All-in-Wonder, and the vid capture
capabilities are not even being used.  Sorry, I couldn't give you a better
answer.

Does anyone have any information for linux support on this card, or _HOW_ to
support the card?

IE: contacts within Matrox ta talk to etc?

Thanks!

The sticker on the side of the box said "Supported Platforms: Windows 95,
Windows NT 4.0, or better", so clearly Linux was a supported platform.
