good free software to record from TV tuner card.

[BCheng_ca]

as the title indicate, I would like some suggestions for a good software that i can use to record TV shows.
The software that came with the card freezes everytime i want to stop recording.

I intent to record into either Xvid/DivX or H264 with MP3 audio.
advance functions like timed auto start are optional.

DScaler is mainly for watching but you can use it for capture. It's almost my only (free) option for making the mistake to get a USB TV card.
