If I remember correctly, this card was used in early stage of multimedia.
It was hot and cost ~$1900 that time. It was mainly used in a 2 video
system that a interactive program runs on computer monitor and it controls
the video playback (usually a Panasonic laser disc player) on a NTSC
monitor. It may have an XObject for Director or Authorware. If you need to
find the driver, you probably have to find a friend working in education
setting like unviersity or secondary school. It may be still popular there.
Nowadays, everybody is using QuickTime, AVI, or MPEG for this type of
application.
Hope this helps,
