Hello.

No, as far as I know, we have no lists.

One of the nice things about our software is that we DO support the
standards, such as Directshow and OHCI IEEE-1394 - we actually don't
need to make a list of our own, since (all) companies should state
what standards their cards do/do not support.

(Excerpt from the FAQ):
Sonic Foundry Video Capture supports all OHCI-compliant IEEE-1394 DV
capture cards, and MJPEG cards supported through DirectShow. Your
1394 (capture) card and camera must be OHCI compliant IEEE-1394 DV in
order to take full advantage of Vegas Video and Video Capture.

Using an OHCI compliant IEEE-1394 DV capture card along with
compatible decks and cameras, you can capture and print to tape
video. In addition, DV capture cards which are OHCI-compliant IEEE-
1394 will allow software control (device control) of DV camcorders.

If you have an MJPEG card that is DirectShow compatible, you can use
Sonic Foundry Video Capture to capture video. Software control
(device control) of the camcorder is not supported with analog
capture cards. If you have one of these cards, you will need to
capture video using your card's utility and output it into a Vegas
Video supported format.

Please note that the documentation you receive with your video
capture card must specifically claim "OHCI compliant IEEE-1394 DV"
compliance in order to work correctly. Check with the manufacturer to
find out about compliance.

Sonic Foundry has a longstanding policy of NOT recommending specific
hardware. We do offer this advice for those wishing to
purchase/upgrade/troubleshoot:

There are numerous OHCI compliant IEEE-1394 DV cards available for
less than $100. In many cases, it may be worth purchasing one of
these to ensure compliance. There is NO difference in quality between
these low cost cards when transferring digital information. Many
older "DV cards" are simply not "OHCI compliant IEEE-1394 DV".

Thanks!
