Hi,

Pinnacle also sells good video capture cards : www.pinnaclesystems.com
Check the PCTVPRO :
http://www.pinnaclesys.com/ProductPage_n.asp?Product_ID=103&Langue_ID=7

They used to sell them with  the Brooktree 8xx chippset which is 
supported by the bktr driver in FreeBSD 5.3 and 4.11

Hope this helps

Thanks
Carlos Santos
