Jon,

The multi input capture card most widely used in Australia is:
http://www.ieiworld.com/en/product_IPC.asp?model=IVC-200G

A Linux driver is built into the kernel since 2.4.22 & 2.6.0-test3,
with patches for some previous kernels available at:
http://www.ap-accessgrid.org/linux/ivc.html

Supplier in Australia is:
http://www.icp-australia.com.au/DataSheets/IVC200G.html

North America supplier looks like:
http://www.icpamerica.com/IVC_200G.php

I've done several installations with these cards, all trouble-free.

There are 2 models, IVC-200 & IVC-200G; we've always used the plain
IVC-200, without the GPIO module of the IVC-200G version.
