How to capture analog video
1. Wiring
Connect the video out of your DVD or VHS recorder to the video in (TV, video or video in
graphics card) of your computer, and the audio out to the audio in on your sound card.
Due to the variety of device configurations, it is difficult to say which cables function best
with your setup. If you’re not sure, check the manual of your VCR or your TV, video, or
graphics cards.
Example:
Europe: Many VCRs and DVD players have a SCART, 3 RCA (2 for stereo sound, 1 for
video), or S-Video/optical audio line out. In such case, you will need a SCART to RCA
adapter, a cable with 3 RCA jacks, or an S-Video cable.
North America: Many VCRs and DVD players have a 3 RCA (2 for stereo sound, 1 for
video), or S-Video/optical audio line out. In such case, you will need a cable with 3 RCA
jacks, or an S-Video cable.

jack adapter from your local supplier.
