------------------------------
- CuSeeMe (and other apps) may not work correctly under QuickTime4

Notes
-------
On Apple's recommendation, the driver is designed as a compressed source digitiser.
All non-PCI digitisers (e.g. Apple's own 1394 DV camera digitiser) will be designed this way.
Some older shareware applications cannoit handle this type of driver. Most application
authors are aware of this problem and are correcting the applications accordingly.
We will continually update our list of compliant applications.
