FreeBSD Multimedia,

I'm in the process of building a FreeBSD server which will act as an
internet gateway for my network.  While doing this, I've come up with the
idea of using the server to record programs off free-to-air TV to be
watched on other computers.  Does software exist which would allow me to
program what I would like to record in advance?  As the system resources
are quite limited, I don't really want to use an X-based application.
Would this kind of thing be possible on a Pentium 133 (simply capturing TV
at approx. VCD resolution in uncompressed form, for later encoding) ?  Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Greg Lovell
