[AG-TECH] High res video streams, in AG VIC session

[Robert Olson]

You can also use a Pinnacle DC10+ (or other cards supported by the 
mjpegtools folks, though last I looked there were some problems with the 
LML33 and thumbnails...) with the AG vic, which has a hardware jpeg capture 
module. AG windows vic also supports accelerated JPEG decode with the Intel 
JPEG library.
