analog video capture - SuSE-8.1

Hello,

Less than two years ago (with SuSE-7.2 I think) I managed to capture
analog video signals with TV Card Miro PCTV-Rave just for fun. Image
is not perfect.
Unfortunately it was dual-boot PC and my son decided to install M$ XP
and this nice Mickeysoft had the nice idea to erase my Linux partition
- I lost all my settings it took me weeks to configure.

Now I want to start all over again on SuSE-8.1.

I can have a second-hand PC PIII 1.?Gb, 128Mb Ram, 20Gb Hd

What TV card would you advise for analog video capture. On the Web I
read that DC10+ cards worked very well but it was old cards I think.
Pinnacle Studio DC10+ ?

I suppose there is still the bttv driver or equivalent on SuSE-8.1.

What softs are advised for divX compression. Sorry I lost all
my written memos thanks to dear M$. I forgot the name of the soft I
used last time to convert to DivX. I have now mplayer installed with all
necessary codecs on a laptop and have no problem to read compressed
.avi files. A long time ago I could see TV with Kwintv or Sawtv with
the Miro PCTV-Rave card.

If I have the softs I can then spend a few weeks like last time to
read the tutorials. I appreciate if you give a good link to a tutorial
at the same time.

Thanks,
