Well, the unit I purchased is a USB connected device, which I am not sure you would want. However, the makers of the hardware and software can be found at www.pinnaclesys.com.

Some of the relevant features are here:

MPEG2 encoding/decoding is enabled.
MPEG4 encoding/decoding is enabled.
DivX encoding/decoding is enabled.
Sony PSP/Apple IPod encoding is enabled.
Dolby 2 channel downmix is enabled.
Direct to DVD recording is enabled.

Although I have not used the software, my product also has a " Videodownloader " which apparently can capture any streaming or tv generated video for storage on the PC.

The company has a range of devices which do similar things to this system, so I would focus on theirs and related products, not the one I purchased for the laptop USB connection. From another thread, here is a product which may offer some features you are looking for:

I hope this helps.
