A video capture card such as the ATI All-In-Wonder Pro does a pretty
good job with a powerful-enough computer (We've got it on a 1 ghz P3).
$150-200 gets you a card and software including "TV on demand";  it will
save in its own ".vcr" format, which can be played back on the computer
by the ATI File Player, or exported to an MPEG format.  About 1 GB per
hour of recording in default mode.

Re: 
Subject: #7325 Recording TV to Disk


Hello.  We have some instructors who record off air broadcasts to VHS
for
use in class.  I am looking for a way to capture these broadcasts
directly to a HD (e.g. Tivo?) I want to avoid having to digitize the
stuff
from VHS.  Does anyone have suggestions for how to do this?  Joseph
