For Immediate Release
Jun 15, 2004
Atlanta, GA. Today, EchoFX, a Macintosh software developer, announced
the immediate availability of USBVision For Mac OS X 1.1.1 -software
support for video digitizing devices including the XLR8 InterView,
Belkin VideoBus and others.
Version 1.1.1 is a maintenance release that restores the ability to
play sound in the background, no longer interferes with iChat / iSight
operation, and releases unused USB bandwidth when video is not present.
Problems with Internet version checking when multiple devices are active
have also been resolved.
USBVision For Mac OS X 1.1.1 is free to registered USBVision For Mac OS
X customers.
USBVision For Mac OS X Overview
The USBVision software offers Mac OS X support for a wide range of
devices including XLR8 InterView, Belkin VideoBus and VideoBus II,
iRez USB Live and CapSure, Global Village VideoFX, Alpha Data USB
Video Adapter, Hauppauge USB-Live and many others -including those
originally sold as "PC-only". Mac OS X support for most of
these devices was previously unavailable.
Additionally, the USBVision software will allow up to eight video
capture devices to run simultaneously on one computer. Multiple
devices can be used with Ben Bird's SecuritySpy and SubRosaSoft's
HomeGuardian security packages allowing the monitoring of many different
video sources. Multiple devices can also be used with video broadcast and
webcam packages such as Econ Technologies' ImageCaster, allowing
multiple video sources to be uploaded to the Internet from a single
computer.
The USBVision software has been enhanced in a number of ways from the
original InterView-only software, including the addition of snapshot
button support, audio input support, and increased compatibility with
various third-party applications. The USBVision Capture software included,
now features hardware accelerated full-screen playback, duration-based
recording and AppleScript support.
