Attention Mac OS 10.6 users. If you plan to install the USBVision or VideoGlide software on Mac OS 10.6, you must use version 1.4.2 or later. The installers for earlier versions are incompatible with the new OS. USBVision and VideoGlide are compatible with Mac OS 10.6 running in 32-bit mode. However, if you enable 64-bit mode on your machine, you may lose the ability to use the audio inputs on some older devices.

EchoFX sells Mac OS X software drivers for USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 video capture devices. If you have one of the many devices we support, installing "USBVision" for USB 1.1 devices or "VideoGlide" for USB 2.0 devices, will allow you to preview and capture video using the device.

If you have a device and are not sure whether it will work, install the appropriate software, plug in the device, and launch the capture application. If your device is supported, a registration dialog will appear. You can use the "Demonstration" mode to test the software.
