I recomend a PCI TV card, you can record video from your camcorder, VCR, cable, or from TV programs using a TV antenna. I wouldn't use the record program that come from the PCI TV card. I would use a program call FREE VCR ( which you can download for free on the web. It record the video into AVI videos segments which makes it easy to skip track. Next I would used a progam called XingMPG Encoder( it compress the avi video and it can be downloaded for free from the web) to convert the AVI into Video CD and last I would use a program call NERO 5.0 to burn the Video CD on to a CD-R. But remember to use two CD-R to divide the recorded video into two parts.
