I'm having trouble finding a video capture card product with Linux driver support. The ones that I have seen so far, support Linux only with experimental third party drivers.
Do any exist?
Pluses would be -
- S-Video Input
- Onboard size scaling

IMHO most Hauppauge TV tunerboards (or in other words those using the connexant chipset (former Brooktree) should do.
A probably better group to ask this questions is rec.video.desktop

I agree. Look for the cards supporting the following chips:
848 878 879Theres plenty of support under most UNIX flavors for these pci cards.
The Hauppage PVR-250 and PVR-350 work fine (if you want hardware MPEG2 encoding). If you want a raw frame-grabber, then most boards with BTTV chipsets work.
Google for "v4l".
