How are you hooking up the sound from your VCR or Camera? I use a cable with an adapter. Don't care how you do it but you need sound going into the line-in jack of your sound card. I unplug the short cable going to the TV Tuner from the sound card line in jack. I use this method for VCR capturing. My camera has firewire. If you have your sound hooked up this way check your mixer and make sure it hasn't become muted. Some programs have a funny way of turning things off. Let me know.

[hello there]

my camera has a svideo input and output i brought svideo cable with both of the same ends one i installed in camera and other in tv tuner svideo the sound configration wich i have done is the way wich i was said to do in the catlog and think if sound config is wrong then while watching tv sound should not run but it runs very well this is just when i install svideo plugs the problem comes till now i hve not checked the mixer ill check and see if it mutes or not and my cables are going in line-in jack btw thanks for reply and pls tell anything else i can do thanku again

There are two parts to the WINDOWS MIXER

everyones' familiar with the multi slider PLAY CONTROLS.
one slider for each thing on your computer to lissen to.. EASY!
then there the hiden RECORDING secion..
Accesed by clicking on PROPERTIES of the MIXER,
changing the play mixer
The hidden recording console contains the CHECKMARK on each slider.
ONLY if the SLIDER MARKED LINE-IN is checked will it be "selected" end as a source to record from..
This may be all you need to do, if in fact you have a special audio cable going alongside your S-VIDEO feed to the pinnacle card..
NOTE THAT THE LINE IN is on the AUDIO CARD or AUDIO PORTION of the MOTHER BOARD..not on the PINNACLE CARD as its audio is only from the tuner and must also go to the sytem LINE-IN when you switch to TV RECORING
