I'm looking at this as a possible replacement for Matrox Cards. Being based on the GeForce3 is a definite plus in the 3D performance category. This will finally put me back on track for 3D after waiting a year or more for Matrox to catch up.
The card has video capture and video out capabilities, but I haven't found a lot of information as to how these actually work. It appears that the capture side might be limited to capturing only MPEG-1 or MPEG-2. Also, they claim to support a capture rate of 30 f/s, which I assume is 30 frames/sec leading me to assume further that this means 60 fields/sec. But we all know what ASSUME means, .
The card also has video out capability, but again I have no information as to how it is implemented. One nice feature of the Marvel G-X00 cards I have is having the video being played back go to a separate TV monitor. While I can live without this feature, it is very nice when previewing the NLE work I do.
Anandtech's review of the card claims it has high quality 2D as well and they card received a 9 out of 10 rating.
I'm not really expecting this card to accell in the NLE/video world, but who knows, maybe I'll be surprised.
