In my room I have a Portable tv (no scart lead), Video (has scart socket), Playstation 2, digibox (has scart socket (connects to vcr so i can watch it (i dont mind losing this as its ****)))

You could just record onto a vcr, it's a lot simpler. YOu wouldn't have to spend money to buy cables. Just take the vcr over to your PC and plug it into a capture card.

So basically i play socom through my VCR and record onto a video tape.

Then move the VCR next to pc and use a video card to switch it to pc? How does this work? Will my video tape play on pc then i have to press record on pc to record it to pc then edit?

Would this video card do the trick http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/6767543.htm and also what good editing video programs are their i can use that are free, easy to use?

If the video card above is not what i need can you please direct me to a good/cheap pne i need that will do the trick, many thanks, skywalkerz
