Video Camera audio capture question

[tonemgub]

I am using my ATI All In Wonder to capture from my Video Camera which has a tape in it. My video camera has a composite video out (yellow) and 1 audio out with the red and white cables (just the white one). As a result, the audio only comes through one speaker. Is there a way to change so the audio would come out of both speakers?

phono splitter (1 male to 2 female) from Radio shack. About $6. Connect it to the camera, then connect the red/white cables to the splitter. *presto*

Hi tonemgub,

Can you be more precise on your "video camera":

* Does it record as analog or digital?
* Is the sound recorded as mono or stereo?
* What make / model?

You can also just set your capture settings to mono. You can convert it to stereo* either during editing by copying the track manually,or during encoding or authoring. I'm pretty sure that most software will by default just create a duplicate track when converting a mono track to stereo. I know that's what mine does.

*won't really be stereo but it never was.
