Hi , I gonna post a picture of PC-Hurricane tonight on the
alt.binaries.pictures.misc and .utilities newsgroup in uuencoded
format.

Here comes the general info:


PC-Hurricane already ships !


It is a true color YUV realtime frame grabber and can store 25 frames
/sec(PAL) or 30 frames/sec(NTSC)  into Expanded Memory.
So if you have 32 MBytes of Ram on your motherboard, you can be happy.
Then you can store about 16 seconds of realtime MPEG resolution
320x240 true color video with one shot !
With the enclosed software you can save this with one command to
single TGA pics onto the harddisk.

Then, if you have the Xing Technology MPEG encoder, 
it will be possible to compress this about 400
TGA pics with just one second command to a MPEG movie !

So you have in about 5 minutes of work a ready to display MPEG movie !


PC-Hurricane has NTSC/PAL switchable. So it can also digitize NTSC
video.
If you want to have more infos on PC-Hurricane, please send me email !
