Capture cards¶
The capture card processes the analog or digital stream for MIS archiving. Normally MIS is configured to continuously ingest and record each channel. As such, you must dedicate a capture card port per channel. If you are using set-top boxes, they also need to be configured on a per-monitored-channel basis. Optionally MIS can be configured with the STB remote control feature allowing users to switch between dial numbers using the virtual remote control feature.

In instances where the card supports video output the output feed may be used to directly drive a video monitor. This capability must be configured using probe manager.
