Any TV card will let you watch TV at fullscreen at 320x240. Some will get you 640x480.
The major factor that will determine the quality you want is whether it has hardware encoding on the card. Most don't, and you probably won't find one in your price range either.
However, you need to look at the quality of VCD's, since they only have a resolution of 352x288 (PAL). So realistically all you need is to be able to capture at that resolution to make a decent VCD. Also, you'll have to include the speed of your CPU, Hard Drive and memory, especially if you are going to use software encoders.
If all else fails, just save the video stream as an un-encoded AVI file, probably requires about 100meg per min, but you'll have the best quality. Later you can convert it to VCD (MPEG-1) and you won't have to worry about keeping up with the stream.
Answer your questions?
