Just about any DVD authoring program will resize your video to fit on the DVD. Its very likely that the software bundle that came with your DVD burner includes an authoring program.
If not, TMPGenc Author is a great DVD authoring program.
It does not.
AutoGK supports Xvid and Divx.
The manual version of Gordian Knott also supports x.264, but only outputs to .avi, .ogm, or .mkv containers, so I doubt that its compatible with Ipod.
The eVGA probably comes with an (old) version of Intervideo WinDVR for tv viewing and recording. This may be adequate for your needs. If you want more features and flexibility, I would reccomend buying Snapstream BeyondTV. GB-PVR (a free program) may not work with that eVGA card, since it...
Easily
What do you need the PCI slot for?
I dont have any first hand knowledge of that eVGA card, so I cant say either way.
You might loose some image quality (dropped frames and such) but you might get by with a USB TV tuner if you absolutely cant spare the PCI slot for a dedicated...
1. Right click "My Computer"
2. Click the "Hardware" tab
3. Click the "Device Manager" button
4. Expand the menu under "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers"
5. Double click on the controller your DVD drive is connected to (probably the secondary channel).
6. Click the "Advnaced Settings"...
If he could hook a small antanae to it and pick up over the air signals from NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, WB, etc. Would work as well as haveing a portable LCD TV, just with a much bigger screen.
Fair Use Wizard, Gordian Knott, and Auto Gordian Knott (xvid and h.264) - Free. Prmarily intended for conversion of DVD files to xvid/h.264.
Windows Media Encoder (WMV9) - Free. If you can play the file in Windows Media Player, this utility will encode it to WMV9. Pretty flexible program...
You can:
- use Microsofts "Windows Media Encoder" (google it) to convert it to a WMV file
- use AutoGK (http://www.doom9.org/autogk.htm) to convert it to a .avi xvid file
You shouldnt throw any of your batteries in the dump. Call your county/city or your garbage collection service and ask about Household Hazardous Waste collection programs. Almost every major municipality in the US has one, and will likely take your batteries (as well as paint, pesticides...
The best option for playing games would probably be to skip the TV tuner all together, and just get a plain old video capture card with s-video or RCA inputs and no hardware encoding. You should be able to pick something up for ~$20-30
I dont see anything on that page about official 64bit support. However, I found some beta drivers posted on the UK bboard for the PVR-150:

Why couldnt you get it smaller than 172mb with AGK? You can specify smaller file size than that. I have used it to convert short video clips recorded off TV.
Or you could try something like Windows Media Encoder, to convert to a WMV file.
I have one of those in front of me right now. Pretty good monitor. Though you have to learn to ignore the two little horizontal lines that all Trinitron monitors have.
Almost any free or low cost editing program will choke, or take forever to load, on an 8 gig mpg file. I would reccomend you try setting Beyond TV to encode in mpg2 at a lower bit rate. On my HTPC, I get an hour of mpg2 recorded TV at about 2gb size.
Flash based 5gb or more will be pretty hard to find. 4gb is pretty much the most you will find in a flash based player.
Look at:
iRiver H10 - 5gb HD
Creatives Micro and MicroPhoto - 6/8gb HD
I belive both VLC and Media Player Classic have functionality for getting source from hardware, at least I have gotten them to access my Hauppauge TV tuner before. Never tried to get the s-video source specifically with them though.
