1. Finderscope very accurately aligned with the CCV FOV
2. Focus on a star beforehand
3. Set the exposure on a very bright star with similar magnitude as your pass.
4. Start recording, and track it as it goes along.
All of that, and hope that you get a few hits of the ISS on the avi.

Thanks for your input Mike,
The Heavens Above website says that the ISS passing tonight will be a bright -2.3mag. So it will be a tad hard to find a star similar to that brightness. What should I do?
Barlow or no Barlow?
I really apreciate your help.
