PCI Express Capture Card?

Are any companies working on one? If so, any ETAs?

A lot of the new MBs don't have PCI...just several PCIe slots...at least BXT ones...however I could be wrong. But anyway its upposed to have a higher bandwith than PCI and so several tuners could be better used on a PCIe bus...

Even with HD cards, it would take over 50 cards to saturate the PCI bus, the current 32 bit 33MHz PCI bus is nowhere near a bottleneck with SD or HD TV cards.

Actually, I thought most boards were coming with a PCIe slot for graphics and then PCI slots that branched off of the PCIe bus for peripherals. Didnt see anywhere in the intel roadmap that PCI was going away..... Besides, I could think of alot better items to use that bus for....how about raid controllers?
