Depends on what length. Under 10m, there should be no attenuation issues. Why are you doing component into your computer? Are there any other options? Component will only give you 1080i but then again, TV you watch on your PVR is probably 720p anyway.

I just got a PVR as well actually and was wondering about the logistics of recording off it to PC for conversion to other formats but it's probably not worth the hassle.
