I want to add a video grabber card to my lovely freebsd box in order to run
vic in about 10+ frame per second in CIF resolution. I think quickcam
is just not fast enough to handle the speed. I am considing some add-on
PCI video grabber card base on SAA7146 chip from Philips...

Does anyone out there had tried that before? Are there any driver written
for SAA7146 based card? Thanks for any comment.
