Home Security

I was wondering round the local Maplin yesterday and noticed some Wireless cameras.
the cameras feed into a receiver which has a scart output. i figure if i can pass this to a simple pci / usb tv card i can set up my own home CCTV System on my server which runs 24/7 anyway

has anyone done something similar / had thoughts on doing the same

my initial thougts on problems would be
powering the cameras.
setting some software up to record the streams.
setting the software to start a new file every hour.
