The main problem seems to be that AverMedia does not use standard nor reference settings. That's very typical in case of AverMedia, I don't know why... Someone should find correct settings used from usb-sniffs and configure that device as needed. It is a little bit hard for me add support because I don't have device. But I can try to look sniff and guess what should be changed. I was waiting for if Laurent can fix that device. Laurent, are you still working with that? Sniffs are welcome. regards Antti -- http://palosaari.fi/
