Remarks

This captures and saves RGB/NTSC/PAL video input displayed on a ATronics 
PIB and PIB Plus image capture board to a 512x480 16-bit Targa image file. 
Optionally, can display or load the PIB or PIB Plus image capture board 
from a 512x480 16-bit Targa file existing on disk, to the ATronics' image 
capture buffer. The PIB and PIB Plus work best when used with a dual 
monitor system: one PC monitor for your PC Video card and a second NTSC 
analog or PC analog monitor for the image capture board.
