Does anyone know anything about this card? It appears to be some sort of combo video/video capture/video editing board, and looks like it has 2 IDE drive interfaces on it, but beyond that I can't find any info on it other than what is on the link below.

I knew Miro had some ISA and PCI capture boards but was not aware they made a VLB one. Heck, I wasn't aware any VLB capture/editing boards existed.

Sorry I cannot be of any more help, but there's also at least one MCA capture board which was also made as an ISA part (the ActionMedia II).
