This is effectively a choice between composite and SVHS or S-video. Just try each one to see which is the best fit.įinally, on the video side, you have to choose the source. This is just trial and error on a case-by-case basis. You can combine the two images for smooth (ish) progressive images using the deinterlace setting. The downside to this was that it made the screen flicker. Old time video signals were interlaced, which doubled the amount of lines available by interlacing two frames and flicking rapidly between them. The next thing to set is the deinterlace. You will spot the right one, even if you don’t know what your local standard is just select one after the other and the screen will pop into colour when you have the right one. If you get a weird picture which seems black and white, fuzzy and weirdly offset on the screen, then it’s likely your video standard is not right. This test was conducted in a PAL country, the UK, but your mileage may vary. First, you have to set the video standard. If it were that simple, then you could get started right away, but there are a couple of extra steps before you can play and record. Now all you have to do is plug the yellow composite Video Out of your device to the yellow video plug on the Eas圜AP.

This needs to be a powered slot, so no dumb USB 1.0 hubs will do. Install and run the driver from the downloaded file, and if you haven’t plugged your Eas圜AP into the computer, you will be advised to do so. Ubuntu 18.04.1 information about the Eas圜AP device I bought via eBay:īus 003 Device 011: ID 1c88:0007 Somagic, Inc.Installing the hardware is easy just plug it into an available USB slot. Perhaps an older version of Windows 10 may work (until Microsoft pushes it to update). Wind(as of ) did not complain about the digital signature, but it complained about the Widows 95 era *.INF file and not being able to migrate the driver. Your USB Device should be installed and recognised now.

That means it is not “signed” which is required for Windows 10 kernel drivers.
You will note there is no “Digital Signatures” tab. The Somagic device driver is installed in C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\smiusbgrabber3f.inf_amd64_62fdac16904230b7\SmiUsbGrabber3F.sys.

Events tab will list entries such as:ĭevice installed (smiusbgrabber3f.inf_.ĭriver Management concluded the process to install driver smiusbgrabber3f.inf_amd64_62fdac16904230b7 for Device Instance ID USB\VID_1C88&PID_0007\SMBL007 with the following status: 0圎0000234.

The lack of firmware is why “VLC 3.0.4 Vetinari” can work with some Eas圜AP hardware (those with built-in firmware) but not others.
Once the firmware is loaded, the device ID changes to 1c88:003c. The Somagic 1c88:0007 is one such device (there may be others). Some do not store the required firmware in EEPROM but expect the driver to feed the firmware into the USB hardware when inserted. There are many different versions of hardware sold under the name of "Eas圜AP".
