Alright, last night, I was thinking about a comp connection to a TV, and if you had Fraps running on the comp, if you could record TV shows/movies with Fraps onto ur comp from ur TV:

A TV with a PC input

A PC running Fraps

Cable/satelite TV

Would it work? Or does Fraps only record what the PC is sending out? Because, it would be totally sick if you could record TV shows from your TV with Fraps... If you do not understand, I will try to translate for you lol :)

I can already do this... I have a capture card. A cheap/shitty one that I bought to record me playing halo 2

site doesn't work for me. Is there another with a capture card? Better yet, can you get them at Best Buy, etc?
