I am thinking about purchasing the Leadtek PCI TV/FM Tuner Card, REMOTE, Model "WinFast TV2000 XP Expert".
Capture Card I want to use it mainly to transfer VHS tapes to the computer so I can edit them and then burn them to a DVD. I have been looking at the inputs on the card and I am stumped as to how the VCR plugs into the capture card. Do you just take teh antenna out from the VCR and plug it into the cable TV jack on the capture card. I do see an input on the capture card that is S-Video/Audio In so do I plug that somehow into the VCR. I'd really apprecdiate everyone's help and if anyone has any comments on the quality of the card then I'd really appreciate it.

I got the WinFast TV2000 XP Deluxe last year and it's great for recording TV shows. I haven't recorded video from a VCR, but the process is similar.

The card should come with a S-video/RCA cable that connects the VCR to the S-video in port on the WinFast card. The package should also include an audio cable that plugs into the audio in port from the audio out on the VCR.
