Could a tuner card read the info?


You would use a video capture card not a TV tuner card.

USB and internal (PCI) cards are available with a number of inputs.

Consider the power running costs and stability of a standard PC
running 24/7 for video capture. IP cameras may be more expensive but
often have significantly higher resolution and on-board storage (where
available) means they don't need a DVR.

I like the offhand way they promote them as less than EUR1000 each.
