I think I have narrowed down the problem to the rack-mount case I was using.
I think it has some ground issues, or a bad power supply. (I can't get a
good capture with an un-modified card)
I am trying my little project over again on a new machine. I fear I might
have accidentally fried my bttv, but I will see in the next day or so. I
will post my progress again on this list when I am done.
BTW: I put up a picture of my first try at http://toonarchive.com/videoout
