Transferring Hi8 Film to DVD or BluRay typically involves capturing the video from the camcorder rather than simply copying the video files off the camcorder. This immediately entails a loss of quality, much like photocopying a photocopy, but is actually much worse due to subsequent transcoding and compression. The best quality will be achieved with a frame-accurate capture with no compression, but this will require a vast amount of data storage in real-time. However, transcoding to DVD or BluRay will probably incur a loss of quality anyway (particularly DVD), so capturing in a native DVD or BluRay format might produce better results. Best solution is to try it on a short sample of the movie and compare the results. There are also plenty of tutorials and forums on the internet that will help with more specific issues.

Which one is better for video capturing from miniDV camcorder DV card or TV card or USB?

MiniDV video is captured to a computer in real-time as it is played back on the camcorder. A Firewire DV card is by far the best to use, it was designed for video and has a vary high transfer rate, make sure your camera has firewire, a lot of time it is marked as DV out. You can also add a firewire card to your computer fairly easily. Search for 'PCI firewire card' for desktop computers and "PCMCIA firewire card' USB won't work because the transfer rate is not fast enough. Another option is to use a professional video transfer service. They use super high quality audio cables that connect miniDV decks to high quality video cards directly. This would get you the best quality. StashSpace.Com offers this transfer service for $6.95 a tape.
