Using a "Y" cable can cause a problem with color because of the difference sometimes between the impedance of the two outputs.
It would be best to use a one transistor emitter follower for each source before inputing to the capture card. Many times the chroma channel out is of high impedance compared to the ~ 50 ohm impedance of the "Y" out.
This does in some cases causes color smear or phase shift.
I am still interested in your idea.
