it depends on the quality of recorded data. It should be at least as good as
a vhs tape...

ok so, to use vdr, which card is cheap and good ?

In fact, I want to make a little box that can play mp3, divx and record TV.
So the choice of a old machine is not good, as a P90 is far from enought to
play divx ;)

But on the other hand, I do not need satellite receiver nor a very good
recording quality. If I can have the same quality as with a vhs tape, I will
be happy. That's why I was thinking about a EPIA mother bord which is just
fine to look at divX video file and a little analog TV card that is able to
record TV like a tape recorder.
In fact I was looking a VDR because it seems to be the only soft that is
very well integrated and can make you forget you are using a PC.

Thanks for this answer, it was very cool. I will take a look at the 2 links
you gave me.
