Note:
Before installing Spectra8 driver, please check if you have the BT878 driver installed on
your computer. If you do, please uninstall BT878 driver completely. Otherwise it could have a
compatibility problem with the Spectra8 driver.
Problem: There is some latency when all four inputs are being used and the system is
overloaded.
The latency issues are not from the card, they are from the encoders you are using.
Regarding system load: Keep in mind that you are processing 4 live streams at the same time
and that can generate a lot of PCI bandwidth. If frame dropping occurs, lower the encoding
settings by selecting lower frame rates or lower resolution or increase your CPU speed.
Problem: I've installed my Spectra8 and it's not working.
-Verify that the board is completely seated in the 32-bit PCI slot inside
your PC. These slots are usually white. The board should be level and
attached to the chassis using the mounting screw.
-Verify that all of the cables are connected securely to the proper board.
-Verify that there is no other video capture card installed on the computer. If there
is, remove the other card.
-Reboot your computer after installation.
Problem: I'm not getting a video display (black screen). What do I do?
-Verify that your video source is properly connected to the Spectra8 board and
powered up.
-Make sure the physical jack used for the connection is the same as the one selected
on the Video Control panel.
Composite selects the RCA jack, S-Video selects the 4-pin mini-DIN, and MXC selects the
multimedia extension connector.
