[QUOTE="giantjoebot, post: 87470, member: 26289"] Until everything calms down, and my financial situation looks stable, I might pull out the old VCR, and then When I have the money build a dedicated machine with a nice capture card. I already have a spare ASUS A8N SLI 939 motherboard, and a Athlon XP 2200. So I can either build a socket A or 939 machine. Or upgrade my media server to a 939 machine with a faster processor, and a DX9 card and a nice tuner card. Any recommendations on a tuner card? Then I can either go with media portal or mythTV. I'm sure that my Modded Xbox can play the file formate. The only thing that it has problems with is some MKV conatiners. And the thing that I like about it is it displays on my CRT type TV perfect, where as I have had problems with Vid cards with svideo ports. I was not aware that media portal had a web interface. Is it difficult to configure? That sounds like a viable option. [/QUOTE]
