TV capture (Best Methods)

[BugsBunny]

i been trying to obtain 80s-90s music vids VH1 no place to D/L i can find on the net..

i have a spare Dell p3 1g system & my home is fully networked, what would be the best way to capture VH1 videos? my vid card is a ti4200 w/svid & my TV has svid as well as my DVD player (standalone) my puter is about 80ft from the TV, hence the use of the extra dell close to the TV? i dont mind buying a capture card/cabling but im a n00b when it comes to the capture & software that is best..once on HD i can deal with the rest, vcd/svcd files are my prefered..

'My puter'... I needed whole 2 minutes to get what it means :D

Try to answer in same style:

Read des for inning. Too long ble isn't good.
Pture with MJPEG codec and YUV rmat. Audio uncmp PCM.
After it ecomprs to desired rmat.

Land of confusion chuckles
thats what i got from your reply, is it a language barrier "laughs"

my puter = my computer. but my question remains, setup & software whats the practical route :confused:

What language barrier? I said that I needed 2 minutes to get what your shortening means, not that I don't understand.

Practical route looks like this:
1: Read guides
2: Use search 'unction (google too)


This is forum, and no place for detailed 'tructions.

Lazy to type, lazy to search :D
