I have a project I'm trying to accomplish and need some information. Do they make a multi port card that you can hook up individual cameras to that you can use with a program like webcamxp (webcamxp.com) I need to get like 8 cameras hooked up for use as webcams.

I can't use true webcams because of usb limitations (length of cables, bandwidth ect.)

What i need is a video capture card that can do more than 1 camera at a time and be addressable to windows for any directx application to access. i have heard that these DVR cards can only be used with the software that comes with them?

has anyone had any experence with these devices?
