Okay, what I want to be able to do is record directly from whatever's showing on my TV, be it a VHS tape, a game or just a program that's on at the moment, and record it onto my laptop (or PC, whatever) as I wanna try making a few game-related videos, as well as recording TV shows in a format that's way easier to store.
Thing is, I have absolutely no idea what any equipment for doing this might be called. I've tried searching for "TV Capture" or "TV recording" and similar stuff, but all I get is USB addons that would enable me to watch TV on my computer, which isn't what I want, dammit!
Ideally I'm after something that's external too, as I'm more likely to use it on my laptop. Anyone able to advise me on this?
