I have a celeron 500mhz with a 20 gig hard drive.
I want to capture games off TV, record them on the hard drive, and transfer them to cdrs. I'd like to be able to capture & encode them in realtime-- the quality does not have to be fantastic, just good enough to be able to enjoy the game (football, basketball). I do not want to deal with having to convert them after they're done capturing.
Questions:
- Can I do this using a simple TV tuner card, like the ATI TV-Wonder? What's the difference between that and the All-In-Wonder?
- What format should I encode to, so that the files are small enough to store on CDRs (hopefully, about an hour on each one?)
- What size frame will I be able to get away with?
I've been reading this forum, and it seems that there are SO MANY different ways of doing all this-- I want to keep it as simply as possible. Just want to record games in realtime to MPEG files that look OK & that I can fit onto a few CDRs.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Dazzle DVC II
This will do want you wanted.
I just got one the other day for almost the same reason.
Set it for VCD and away you go.
I found I could capture and burn without any problems.
