Jerry - about 1 year ago, I bought the USB eyeTV from Elgato.com. It
is really great for my needs.
I use it with my Al-book. I have the local cable (RF connection) and
my satellite decoder (RCA connectors) connected permanently to the
eyeTV. One key-stroke enables you to switch between the two. I also
use eyeTV to convert video tapes to digital files, and for storing
content from my JVC DV camcorder. It is a great device. You can
also use it to record (like TiVo) programs at times (night-time for
me) for later viewing. It also integrates with program schedule
spublished on the internet (at least in the USA< as I understand it).
There is editing software included that does a great job (eg tidying
up the ends of recorded stuff) and also saving it in VCD, QT or DVD
format.
