I just bought a TV tuner card (PCI card) and on the back of the card, it has the following connectors: audio out, composite in, SVideo in, remote connector, coxial (?), and antenna connector. If I want to capture video from a video playback machines/VHS, will I only have video without sound? If so, how can I capture the audio from the same video?

Thanks.

Sound is captured separately depending on the inputs used. You should connect the sound directlly to the line in of your sound card and make sure that line in, in record mode of your mixer is selected.

The coax to the tv tuner deals with the sound as part of the signal coming down the coax, the others all expect a separate sound connection.

Oh great :) I just tried your method, I plug the audio output of the VCD machine to the sound card's input and connect the video out to the tuner card, and tried it with WinDVR, now I can capture the whole video with sound, thanks for all your help!
