Video capture card

[ed]

I wouild like to burn all my video tapes
on to CD's or DVD's. Is it as easy as
just getting a video capture card?
I want to retain quality.
I have an  Athlon 1700 with a 4mb video
card and on board sound from the k7s5a
motherboard.
Also, is it better to burn in AVI or
MPEG-2 format?

TIA
