In addition, if you are developing your own Windows application, the Hauppauge SDK can be used to create a custom application for your system (see this page for more information on the Hauppauge SDK). And for Linux developers, the ImpactVCB-e is included in the 4.0+ kernel and in our PPA for Ubuntu.
