  • Newer drivers for G450eTV ?

    Was searching for updated drivers to use with G450eTV.

    The last version for G450eTV posted by Matrox for WIn2K/XP is Revision 5.82.018 (w2k_582.exe) dated Feb 2002.

    I have tried the newer releases for G450 MMS series - these subsequent drivers mention G450eTV during install, but also seem to have lost some features (e.g. OpenGL) or became less compatible with VideoTools 2.10 and PC-VCR.

    However , in the same directory of their FTP server

    ftp://ftp.matrox.com/pub/mga/archive/win_2k/2002/

    you'll find Revision 5.84.023 (w2k584.exe) dated July 2002.

    It seems to work OK (if not better ) than 5.82 on my WinXP setup

    The ReadENg.Txt file seems almost identical between both 5.82 and 5.84, and it's NOT labelled as Beta anywhere.

    Anyone know the changes in this version or issues as to why it wasn't released?
