I have also here on storage a strange card by Parallax, which is both 
24bit (but I could get it to run only on solaris 2.5, the drivers on 2.6 
showed some artifacts, but I confirmed working) plus video acquisition. 
It is a double-board, but vertically stacked, so it uses only one sbus 
slot.I could watch TV through a tuner inside a window, IIRC, like I did 
on the Apple Quadra AV.
It has 4 large LSI chips plus a custom hardware JPEG codec.

Never tried on NetBSD. Should I ?
