Ok, now, since this is a Linux user group, perhaps you could re-post
with some linux apps and not all this mac crap.

How about *you* go figure this out with Linux apps and then *you* post about it, before you demand someone else does. Especially after they were nice enough to give such a good summary.

Seeeeeesh.

I'm not the "you" you are referring to above, but I'll offer some suggestions.

I have a MythTV <http://knoppmyth.net/> box with a Hauppauge PVR-150 card in it. One of the things about the PVR-150 card is that it has a S-Video input and a composite video input along with a pair of audio jacks for the sound. MythTV can configure one of those inputs to record the output of a VHS tape deck. The PVR-150 also converts the captured video/sound into an MPEG-2 transport stream that can be edited directly on the MythTV box in case you need to chop out commercials, lead-ins, FBI warnings, etc. The final MPEG-2 file is produced using the mythtranscode program using the cut list generated earlier.

Once you have the MPEG-2 file, create a DVD image using QDVDAuthor <http://qdvdauthor.sourceforge.net/> This is a nice program that can create a DVD with a menu, automatically create chapters based on time (say every ten minutes) and has a few other features which I haven't personally used yet.

I burn the final DVD image with K3B <http://www.k3b.org>, one of the programs from the KDE team.

To play the DVD on my computer I use Xine <http://xinehq.de/>

I used this sequence numerous times to convert TV shows to DVDs.
