Summary: Looking for one.

Does anyone know the names of manufacturers of PC or AT boards that
will capture a video frame, put the digitized image on a monitor, and
allow you to interact with the image?  We don't need high resolution or
a large number of grey levels.  What we do want is the ability to put a
frame on the screen, move a cursor around on top of it and record
coordinates of certain features.  The input will be from a video
recorder, so the ability to control the recorder's playback (choose
frames, etc.) from the computer would be a plus.

Ah, yes, the final point.  I know of some really nice boards like AT&Ts
Targa, but we're looking for something on the el cheapo side of reality.

Thanks for any help.
