Hardware Compatibility:
The Video Chameleon system is designed to be used with many input,
output, and storage devices. For information regarding compatible
hardware devices, please check your reseller or our website at www.
videochameleon.com.
Important Note:
Our hardware compatibility list is a guidance that we provide for our
customers. It is not a warranty that all items will be compatible under
all circumstances. We cannot control changes and revisions made by
the manufacturers of other hardware. So it is vitally important that you
test any specific combination of hardware under consideration. This is
especially true if large purchases or critical system rollouts are planned.
For maximum security, you may wish to purchase complete integrated
systems from your reseller.
CompactFlash Cards:
The Video Chameleon player depends upon a CompactFlash storage
card for MPEG storage and playback. At the time of writing, the player
is compatible with virtually all brands and sizes of cards tested, 32 MB
and above. Some smaller cards use an incompatible file type and are
therefore not recommended. Both solid state (ie flash memory) and Mi-
crodrive cards are compatible. Some cards do have better data transfer
rates than others, so users planning high data rate applications should be
especially careful to test with the intended cards. But just as noted
above, there are literally hundreds of different CompactFlash cards on
the market, all subject to change by their manufacturers. So please per-
form thorough testing prior to any volume purchases of CompactFlash
cards. Your reseller can offer additional guidance, and may be a good
source for tested, compatible cards.
Software Upgrades:
An important feature of the Video Chameleon is the ability to upgrade
or update the operating system and player application using the MPEG
Author software and the normal removable CompactFlash card. For
more information see our website www.videochameleon.com or contact
your reseller.
