I am looking at streaming video from a VHS recorder (which has free to air and pay TV inputs) to my computer Winfast TV Expert video card.
I have been looking at a wireless sender and a receiver pair which would plug into the VCR unit and the video TV card.
I have heard of issues of incorrect frequency and video and audio sync problems.
Before I start investing I would appreciate any advise as to this working successfully.

Why don't you just get a multi-input card? This will save some signal degradation, and will also allow you to recieve digital TV.

KillerBug,
Thank you for the reply.
I had thought of that previously, however I was thinking about the streaming for a few reasons.
1/ Send old VHS tapes from VHS recorder to computer for digital conversion without running wires.
2/ Unable to receive paid TV channels on TV card.
3/ Watch paid TV on other TV without having decoder box.

I assume then that this VCR has digital support? If you don't mind me asking: What make/model is it?
