Now that ITV is on Sky Digi, I have no terrestrial TV going down my coax,
so
what I plan to do is use X10 PIR's & multiple cams modulated onto the
Coax,
then when a PIR is triggered, the vid card is retuned to the frequency of
that camera.

For security puposes where a low fps is acceptable I think I could probably
get away with some form of multiplexing to capture images from more than 1
cam at once.

All using 1 capture card, & all theoretical of course :-)
