We assume that the "Capture only" devices' drivers provide programming interfaces for MC to select which input line to use. The latter is a webcam which has no input lines to select from as the only video feed is the video from the camera head. Examples are Hauppauge HDPVR, Hauppauge Colossus, etc. The former includes regular video capture devices that allows a user to choose an input line (HDMI, Composite, Component, SVideo, etc.) to connect the source video to. In this case the Tuner types are "Capture only" and "Camera". The Tuner type choices here are mostly self-explanatory but a little discussion is needed for Service type "Capture-only (no channel guide)". For example, for Service type of "Antenna" in ATSC-land, the choices may be "ATSC" and "Analog Antenna", or "ATSC" alone (as in the USA). The choices depend on your location and Service type selected on previous page.
