You probably have a PeeCee, but I bought a Formac PCI tuner card for my
PowerMac. After I had a mild brain fart getting the RF input set up, it
works great in both PAL and NTSC. Outpost sells it for about $125, and it
comes with decent TV/vidcap software *and* Adobe Premiere 5.1 LE. I take
vid and frame grabs from the C128 all the time with it now.
