The microsoft.public.windows.mediacenter newsgroup is probably the better
place to get peer support.

My Toshiba laptop is a Media Center one and the only way I've been able to
capture analog video is via an external capture device (I use a Dazzle 80),
the TV tuner by using an RF converter and then converting the saved movies
to AVI files using other software.

I don't have a direct capture device built into it and didn't think other
MCE machines did either.
