Ah, what LCD ? I mean, glass tube CRT monitor attached to computer,
running 800x600 and 16bit color or above, 17 inches or more diagonal,
preferrably brand name monitor.

A bttv based card is any video capture card based on the Brooktree
chipset, such as flyvideo, avermedia and a few others. Under linux it uses
the bttv.o module. it used to be one of the better low cost capture card
chipsets (there are better ones now but I do not know about them).
