Hi Martin and Warren,

thanks so much for those speedy replies. That's a very helpful site Martin. However, on further inspection, I find I have Windows Media Centre edition, and the pc already has a capture card.

So, I've dug out the old camcorder, connected up and played a tape. Upon retuning the "TV" in windows media centre, I can get a pic, but of quite poor quality, by feeding through the regular 75ohm coax cable. I could record this, but it really isn't great, and I believe an improvement may be possible by feeding the a/v through the a/v red, white and yellow connectors on the capture card. Trouble is, I can't seem to get anything on the screen when I do this.

Does anyone know how to get the settings to look at the a/v connectors and capture what's coming through them with Windows media centre edition?

Thanks so much
