A card like this is probably what it will be. It is just that most of our
systems do not have 4 free PCI slots, and we have 4 cameras to deal with.
I do not even know if you can have 4 cards at a time. Maybe a video
switcher will be part of the solution. But that requires user
manipulation, which we try to avoid where possible. Luckily, our video
stream contains a barcode at the top in the non-visible part of the image
that tells, among other things, which camera the image is from.
