Exactly as i said earlier, if you intend to do a lot of importing of video from outside analog or digital sources, you WILL need a Vivo card, if not, don't bother with it. The difference between normal cards and Vivo cards (I give ATI as an example) integrate Extra chips to handle this type of work, in the case of ATI, before they added a chip called "Rage Theater", which took care of the VI part...the VO part, like the other poster said, is almost present on all type of add-in GFX cards now.
