I need to get 3 video streams into jitter, simultaneously. I'm on a Mac G5, PCI. Firewire webcams won't work due to long cable runs, so I'm looking for a firewire or PCI solution. The solution does not need to offer great resolution or quality.

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

Two Miglia Alchemy cards + one Firewire DV interface

Have you actually used 2 of these cards in one G5?

Johnny,

If you don't need great resolution or quality, i would strongly suggest 

you a quad processor (4 video input, 1 video output). Then you can 

digitize and cut the incoming video stream into 4 uniform rectangular
