IVC-268G-R20

Data sheet for this card can be found here: http://www.nextwarehouse.com/item/?876363_IEI_TECHNOLOGY_IVC268GR20

The IVC-268G-R20 uses a Techwell TW6802 chip, installation is similar to the KesCom PG104,

To use this capture card you need to compile the driver. For Ubuntu Server 12.04.04 LTS with 3.13 kernel the source can be found at https://gitorious.org/tw68/.

sudo apt-get install git

sudo apt-get install build-essential

mkdir techwell

cd techwell

SEE NOTE BELOW

git clone git://gitorious.org/tw68/smokeyjoness-tw68-v2.git

cd smokeyjoness-tw68-v2

make

sudo make install

sudo modprobe tw68

(Note smokeyjoness-tw68-v2 was successfully installed on 64bit Server, for 32bit server (same hardware) smokeyjoness-tw68-v2 did not work so I use git clone git://gitorious.org/tw68/pocek-tw68-v2.git)

After compiling and "loading" the tw68 modules, you need to check that the modules are actually loaded (lsmod|grep tw). You should have the similar output:

~$ lsmod |grep tw

tw68 44633 2

videodev 86588 3 tw68

videobuf_dma_sg 18786 1 tw68

videobuf_core 25409 2 tw68,videobuf_dma_sg

btcx_risc 13400 1 tw68

~$ cd /dev you should see now video0, video1, video2, video3. This video card has dip SW to program card address (this could be checked later if some one has more then one card installed)
