help me with this TV tuner card

Post by shaggy »

I have a TV/radio tuner/video capture card that came in an older toshiba computer and want to use it on a different comp. The manual lists it as a Brooktree BT848 chip, the card itself says Raffles R4 NTSC.
Anyone know where I can find drivers for this thing? Also what kind of software would I need to use the card aside from the drivers, along the lines of the capture functions. I'm knew to the tv card stuff so any advise is appreciated.

Give this site a try for drivers,

You'll have to register, but it's no big deal.

Another vote for

I have been using them since they started years ago. I have always found what I needed.

Best of luck to you.

Most Brooktree 848 based boards are built on the reference design. This means that most drivers are interchangable. If you cannot find a specific driver for your card, try different vendor's drivers until you get one that works.
