If you use a TiVo, you can plug in an analog cable signal; you don't even need a cable box.

There is a little contradiction here. If it is wireless, then it can't connect directly to your PC because there are no wires. You need a receiver on you PC just as if you had wireless internet. Yes, there are wireless cameras that can be picked up by a receiver which in turn goes to your PC.\nhttp://www.x10.com has some and there are a couple other brands too. \nI have X10 cameras that I can see on my PC and I can even control them from a remote location via the internet.

You could burn it into your computer and burn it out. Or if you have a dvr you could burn directly from dvd to blank cd on you computer, asuming you have Nero.

Sure this can be achieved by purchasing a video capture card or you can use an external device such as Dazzle DV100 they run any where from $100.00 -$200.00 depending on what features your looking for. If you look on Ebay you should find quite a large selection. Let me suggest a website it's http://www.vcdhelp.com    . Hope this helps take care

No.  But If you don't have cable or satellite service there is not that much to record.

Go to best buy and buy a tv tuner card... they'll install it and everything. Should be anywhere from 20-300 dollars, depending on what quality you go with. They'll be able to help you pick the right one, and you will still have the same old computer, only it'll be a DVR too!

Connecting a digital cable box is pretty much the same no matter the model:\n\nTake the coaxial cable coming out of your floor/wall and connect it to the "cable in" on the back of the box.\nWith another piece of coax, connect "cable out" on the back of your cable box to the "in" (rf in, cable in, etc) on your VCR.\nConnect the "out" on your VCR to the "in" on your TV, and that's it!\n\nObviously, if you have no VCR, then simply connect the "out" on the cable box to the "in" on your TV.\n\nIf you are looking to do a more advanced connection, see the owner's manual below.

You need computer hardware that can support MPEG recording in realtime and a TV tuner card that can import television signals to the computer.  Then you need software to manage and record the signals, such as MythTV, SageTV or GB-PVR.  \n\nOn a PC platform, a great DVR system uses a P43.0Ghz, WinTV card and the above-mentioned software on either a Linux or Windows operating systme.

Plug cable into TV card plug and start TV card Software.\n\nIf you have analog cable all channels should appear after scan.\n\nFor digital (set-top box) there is no solution\n\nFor more information RT(F)M

Once you have the recorded footage, the next step is to transfer it to your PC or mac. It will require software, which most probably you got with your camcorder and a USB or IE 1394 DV lead to connect to your computer. The computer and the camera must have these in/out ports (USB or DV) The software manual you received with the camera will guide you step by step for installing the software as well as capturing to disk. Most camcorder vendors provide the software along with the leads required for capture.

Depends on the dvr.  Some allow you to use a cable (usually USB) while others require you to remove the hard-drive (or at least attach a IDE/SATA-to-USB converter).  Try the yahoo group "dishrip" for more info.

I just bought a digital video camera and it can be done.  You need a IEEE 1394 firewire connection to your computer and just hook the camera up.
