Capturing video with ATI All-In-Wonder graphic card, Using VISION (IMAQ)

[feynman]

I need to capture video with ATI All-In-Wonder graphic card and want to do it with NI-VISION. I've read a post suggesting using IVISON by Irene He, which I already tried. But I want to make my own code. Part of the IVISION's vis have password protection, so it is difficult for me to learn by examing the source code. I've heard that the ATI All-In-Wonder graphic card supports WDM drivers. Is there any way to use WDM drivers in NI-VISINO (e.g. by using DLLs) ?

Thank you in advance.

feynman,

" I've heard that the ATI All-In-Wonder graphic card supports WDM drivers."

If this statement is true, then you might be able to call the WDM drivers from LabVIEW using the "Call Library Function Node".  As long as you an get the image data into your LabVIEW program as arrays, then you will be able to convert the arrays into an IMAQ image data type.
