I have a capture card that can dump data onto the PCI bus.
Several years ago, I wrote some code (in C) that grabs
a frame worth of data (via a PCI API call) and displays it.

Im revisiting the project but Id like to see if I can use Dark Basic.
Basically Id like to make a program that grabs and
displays the data CONTINUOUSLY.

Can Dark Basic do this (make a low level PCI API call to
grab data and display it to the video memory directly)?

Thanks!

You could call a DLL in a loop, or create a plug-in that has the routine in a C DLL...

Good news everybody! I really am THAT good...

I forgot to mention that plug-in commands are for DBPro only.
