Now here’s something interesting – Akiharaba News is reporting that Focal Point Computer is coming out with a PCI Express Card designed to perform video capture on HDMI input. The card is apparently called the Intensity BLM-HD-000011.. at least I think it’s called by that name. Very interesting indeed..

Unfortunately the product page was all in Japanese so I had to throw it through some machine translation. From what I could make out, the card supports NTSC and PAL signals and it supports 720p and 1080i HD (sorry – no 1080p). There are two HDMI ports on the card and it apparently works for both Mac OS X and Windows XP.

Here’s the product page for those of you that can read Japanese.
