I'm trying to add HD video capture support into my application and I'm having a hard time finding actual devices that work. The cost of the device is not really a concern, but preferably under a few hundred dollars would be ideal. So far I have tried the Blackmagic Intensity Pro as well as the Hauppauge HD-PVR. The blackmagic card does not work with VLC, gstreamer or any application I have tried except virtualdub. For my application though, I need gstreamer to be able to use the card, or be able to access the raw frames somehow (maybe in Linux, but it seems to not be supported at all). With the hauppauge, I could not get it to work at all in windows with anything except the bundled app. On Linux I can read the video from /dev/video0 but it seems the hauppauge device is very unstable and buggy, and if you don't read from the device fast enough, it just gives up and you have to restart your program. Are there any devices out there that can capture HDMI or component video (either 720p or 1080i/p) that are reliable and either can work with Linux or at least with gstreamer?
Thanks
