Note:  If you do not intend to capture photographs for use with the ID badge software, it is not necessary to install a video capture board.

Combined Video/Video Capture Boards

Circuit boards that combine the functionality of the VGA Board and Video Capture Board are widely available.  Generally these reduce the hardware compatibility issues and increase the overall performance and image quality.  The Mutech IV-450 is an example of this category board.

While others may operate correctly, the only products that are  certified to work with this program are Mutech Corporation’s IV-4XX series and  Integral Technologies’ Flashpoint series.  With several of these boards, an integrated flash system can be attached to enhance the captured images.  Talk to your dealer for more details.
