vic and vat.
These come as standard in the FreeBSD Ports collection,
so you can compile them (including compiling the right
versions of TCL/TK) with the following

cd /usr/ports/mbone/vic
make
make install

cd /usr/ports/mbone/vat
make
make install


For video hardware, get a Bt848 or Bt878 capture card.
Personally, I like Hauppauge WinTV cards, but there
are many other makes, usually cheaper too.


For audio, an ISA sound card which is MSS (microsoft sound system)
compatible will give you full duplex support.
