I used two alchemy tv pic cards in two machines for a long time, worked very well, if you can't find the hard or software give XL video UK a shout as they bought 4 cards for a show we did which they supplied.

If people just want a single composite input, the decklink intensity Pro has composite input.
i just got the IoLD working in m150 build.
not sure about latency or performance but it seems to works,
the IoLD is a firewire to SDI box from AJA.

no promises about performance or latency...

I just got the Kona IoLD - firewire to sdi box - to work in m152
fixed a crash-
dont know latency or performance-
this is not a dv convertor - but an uncompressed sdi to firewire box.

While we're talking video input, does Catalyst work with the Kona 3 cards?
Time ago' i used for Catalyst V3,AURORA SYSTEM PIPE for composite input
together Black magic for SDI/COMPONENT/COMPOSITO input.
Remember you need to use PCI-X bus if you use old MAC G5
Using Cat V3 PRO i used succesfully this video card type
to have 2 video input:
DECKLINK BLACK MAGIC EXTREME SDI/COMPONENT/COMPOSITO
DECKLINK BLACK MAGIC SP COMPOSITO
AURORA SYSTEM PIPE S-VIDEO/COMPOSITO
AURORA SYSTEM FUSE-X S-VIDEO/COMPOSITO
You can use 1 DECKLINK + 1 AURORA simoultanuosly to have 2 video input,
this was solution because time ago' was not possible to use 2 decklink simoultanuosly.

aurora has been obsolete for many many years.
company ceased in 2005.
Has anyone used the Decklink Intensity Pro with catalyst, either for DVI or Composite capture? Also are they usable together, i need two inputs of composite video and was looking at these.
Cheers
Gareth
