This is a function of the software, not the card.

Vigil will do all of that.  See http://www.3xlogic.com - they primarily
list turnkey systems, but the cards and software are available separately.

VideoInsight will do it as well, sort of... newer versions may have
improved it, but as of v3.1, user-access control is available only on
the client (whether the LAN client application or the web-based client).

Both systems also support "hybrid" operation for recording both analog
and IP cameras.

Vigil and VideoInsight both use (basically) the same ComArt-based
capture hardware... main difference is, the software is encoded to
recognize and only work with their own branded cards (so you can't use
VideoInsight software with someone else's card).  Other than that, the
hardware is essentially the same.
