Hi All,

I recently upgraded my Sun box from Solaris 2.6 to 2.7
and now I can't transmit with any versions of vic. I'll
run down my scenario in the hope that someone can advise
me.  I'm using the SunVideo capture card (NOT the SunVideoPlus)
and 'pkginfo' reveals that I have the SUNWrtvc packages that
include the Sun Video Device Driver, etc.  My camera is
powered on and I'm connected to the S-Video port with a
standard S-Video cable (same setup that used to work).

I run the mash-2 version of vic and and see that the
vic menu does show device = SunVideo and I select the
port S-Video and then click 'transmit'.  I get a
black/blank image.  No error messages.

Using the old, pre-mash LBL vic (v2.8), I get this
error: "/opt/SUNWits/Graphics-sw/xil/lib/pipelines/
xilSUNWrtvc_ucode.a: No such file or directory).
Although I do not have the SUNWits package, I was
told that this package may no longer exist and that
I may have missing links.  

So, what do I need to do to get vic to transmit
with a SunVideo card under Solaris 2.7?  

Thanks very much,
Marcia
