7 Linux Video Capture Workstation Software
Epiphan provides the Epiphan USB device driver and the Epiphan capture API for
Linux. Epiphan does not provide a video capture application for Linux. However, the
USB device driver is compatible with Video4Linux so you can use Video4Linux
compatible applications to receive and process captured images. You can also use
the Epiphan Linux SDK to write your own custom video capture application that
receives captured images from the Epiphan capture API. The following software
components operate on a video capture workstation running Linux:
• The Epiphan USB device driver
• Video4Linux
• The Epiphan capture API
• V4L custom video capture applications
