Ya, that would not work with these cards.

The $145 version would work for HDMI in. I am not sure how far I want to
go with this though... ie, how much I want to spend.

These look pretty good and are one of the tuner cards with the tuner not
installed. There is a PCIe with one video in and a PCI with three. It does
seem to be supported in the manner that would allow DVswitch to work
anyway. For what I want, a few webcams (nicer than the last $3 one I got)
for wide shots would probably fill out my needs.

If I was going to do serious work, I might go for the blackmagic card just
for the internal effects. For $295 it might be worth it to get the
switcher/keyer even if I never used the external connections. Then again,
with a whole switcher at $1k with 8 inputs and use the computer as a
control surface, one starts to wonder why try to do the job with a
computer anyway.

The BBC SW probably goes beyond what I want/need anyway. Though it was an
interesting read.
