so uh

i just installed windows on my upgraded PC build, and I was expecting my capture card to work, but NOPE. as it turns out, AverMedia actually ENDED SUPPORT for the capture card I have so it does not work properly on versions of windows higher than 1909. They will not be updating the drivers to fix it

great, i now have a useless capture card.

I'm gonna have to cancel my upcoming streams until I find a temporary workaround for this, until then, i'm going to have to buy a new capture card

i'm really fucking pissed off at avermedia right now

anyway would anyone be willing to donate me any money to buy a new capture card that isn't an avermedia one because fucking hell

@Violet who even makes good ones anymore... elgato's capture cards can't capture analog video anymore and we don't know of any other brands of good capture cards

@Violet (well, their old cards still work, they just don't make any that can do analog video anymore)

@Felthry @Violet Just out of curiosity, what happens if you try to use one of those analog-to-HDMI boxes first?

@Ylfingr @Violet it'll work i'm sure, but those tend to be finicky and do weird things to the signal
