We are getting ready to move from Unix into the world of PC multimedia.
I have been a little dismayed at the horror stories about quality of
equipment and support available for the various PC audio products, but
we gotta make the plunge.

I've narrowed the list of video frame grabbers we're interested in
to the Video Blaster (reports about Creative Labs quality are not
encouraging), Actionmedia II, and the Video Spigot for Windows.  
The codec reported to be on the Spigot looks useful, but there's a
degree of safety in buying into the Video-For-Windows/Actionmedia
IBM/MS/Intel middle-of-the-road philosophy.

Any comments on which video card you'd choose for development 
gratefully received (and I'm willing to share experiences).

Thanks,
Dave Wahl
