  For testing purposed I purchased:

* $9.00   generic bt878a 4ch capture card "this one has heatsink"
* $8.00   generic video/power/audio -over- cat5e/6 balun kit
* $19.99  generic 30IR outdoor camera 12v NTSC

  Installed the capture card into core, as well a 50' run of cat5e with
said balun kit and Camera.

Rebooted core.....

  Since it is a standard bt878a chipset it was install from what I can tell
with no issues. 

  Then I followed the [ analog camera] guide and added this new camera into my
already existing Motion Wrapper as /dev/video0 and that was about it.
