I'd like to record TV on my 15" G4 PB, OS 10.3.9 and am wondering
what's the
best tuner/software etc. A friend with a PC recorded a show for me
and I
can't say I'm impressed with the quality of either the video or the
audio.
If that's the best I can do, I won't bother. Any suggestions?

I have an EvolutionTV, from Miglia (www.miglia.com). It connects to
my PB (TiBook 1GHz) via usb2 on a Cardbus Card (it *might* work in
the regular usb1.1 ports of the TiBook, but I did not try it).
It does hardware compression in MPEG2, DivX or MPEG4. It has an
analog TV tuner and also composite and s-video inputs (great for
finally digitizing those old tapes).
You can do sheduled or live recordings, timeshift live tv and more.
The video quality is outstanding and the software is constantly being
updated.
For the record, the EvolutionTV can also be driven with EyeTV
software (at a cost), though [my limited knowledge of EyeTV not
withstanding] I much prefer miglia's.
Included are plugins that let you do basic editing (like removal of
ads) and even creation of dvd's from with the EvolutionTV application.
