@ctiVideo.Web supports any Video-for-Windows (VfW) compatible video device. If you can see the video-capture device listed in the Multimedia section of the system control panel, @ctiVideo will initialize it and will use it for video manipulation... In case you are not sure if your camera, TV card or parallel port capture device are compatible with VfW, follow the following procedure:

• Go to Start button/Settings/Control Panel
• Double-click the Multimedia Icon
• Select the Devices tab
• Expand the Video Capture Devices section
• If your capture device is listed in the section, it will be available for use with @ctiVideo

Our experience shows, that all the low-price capture devices, based on Bt848 chipset come with Windows 95/98 AND WinNT/2000 VfW drivers. All the rest of the boards/cameras we dealt with (and believe us, this is a long list... :) usually come with more or less functional driver for Win95/98. Unfortunately, some of them don't have WinNT/2000 drivers...

One almost 100% sure way to check if your capture device is VfW compatible: If it works with MS NetMeeting, chances are almost 100% it will work w/ @ctiVideo :)

For a list of tested devices and our selection of capture devices you can buy on-line, please visit our Capture Devices Catalog page.

There are two main reasons for this problem:

• Test if your upload script actually works and allows you to upload files by using a simple form web page, which simulates @ctiVideo.Web. This will show you any errors that might be occurring in your upload script. You can use the following HTML code:
  
  <FORM name="actiVideoWeb" method="POST" action="*! your upload URL here!*">
<INPUT type="file" name="ActivideoControl">
<INPUT type="text" name="SessionID">
<INPUT type="submit" value="Submit">
</FORM>
