Recording from a VCR or Viring Media to HTPC

[blue4ice]

I am looking to add the ability to record to a HTPC build. The sources will either be from a VCR (I can go scart down to S video) and a Virgin Media box (Again I could do scart down to S Video).

What sort of card do I need? Do I need a TV tuner card or could I just use a capture card? Any recommendations?

Cheap & clunky solution, buy a "Retail" standalone DVD recorder. Then if you must load the DVD into the PC

I would prefer not do this method as I may want to take the recorded video with me on a PMP

I would be going with onboard as the boards I am looking at have a HDMI out. Most modern cards also have S-video and component outs no ins i think
