I am looking for a video-overlay or framegrabbing card,
that is doing at least the following things:
- Live video in a Window in realtime in fore- as well
  as in the background.
- Grabbing of a single screen as graphic file
- Recording AVI-Files, so I can play them with the
  new AVI-Mediaplayer in Windows.
- Support of all resolutions and colormodes of
  the graphiccard (Hicolor,Truecolor,256,1024x768,800x600)
- Should not have any problems with my 16 or 32 MByte Ram already
  on my systems.
- ISA-Bus slot
- Sound support is not required because I 've already
  have an soundblaster Pro.

Does anybody have any experience with these kind of
cards or can give me some advices what to buy. Price
can be as high as $ 1000. 

There is one more problem. My graphiccard has no featureconnector
to connect any internal devices. So if exist I prefer a videocard
that only uses the vga-loop-cable but I am not sure whether this 
can be or not, so maybe I buy a new card.

Thank you very much for your help

Markus
