No audio Capture with TV wonder Ve. Help

[Takenover83]

I hear the audio fine but when I go play the captured file there is no audio.

takenover83,

evening.

Two ways to do it.
1, w/ your Audio Cards Software Control Panel, ie SoundBlaster's
-- ...or
2, even easier...
* double-click yellow speaker button (assuming it is not blocked by your
Audio Cards Driver, then
* Open up Options/Properties and select (o) Recording (not Playback)
* scrolldown down the list to find your [x]Line In and "x" the box.
note, this is assuming you connected your source's output ie, VHS to
your Line In on your soundcard - change to [x]Auxiliary if you pluged
output sound to Auxiliary.
* next, click OK
* now, some scrollbars display. put an [x] Line In and move your scale
about midway or lower slightly - to high a scale, and you'll have some
distortion.
* now, Options/Properties and re-select (o)Playback again.
* Make sure that [x]Line In is checked. Note, on some quirky system,
like my 2nd PC, I have to uncheck this box - go figure, but on my 1st PC,
I have to [x] check it. Both these PCs are the SAME mb, ESC K7S5A, but
I suspect that it's because of the two different Sound Cards I have installed
on EACH pc.

That should do it for you.
Good luck, have a good evening.

taken,

sorry about your TV VE'onder, he, he...

I don't have the OS 'XP so I know NOTHING about remedies.

I have the VE on my 2nd PC (both are ESC K7S5A's) and it works pretty
flowless. Right now though, I have it yanked out, cause I'm doing my
usual testing of different capture boards under varisous conditions.
I currently have only the WTVGO card in.
Couldn't get it to work at first, then realised that I have to CLEAR all the
values/reg entries, etc and start from scratch, whenever I installed too
many capture boards and drivers, and swap in and out each one more
than two or three times. My pc becauses unstable, and I have to CLEAR
all the values and start from stratch w/ the catpure card(s)

Given the above, you MAY have to do that as well. CLEAR all entries in
your reg. file and remove all *.ini - anything that refers to the ATI's VE
card. You may have to re-install your video card drivers to. But, if you
do that, you have to in this order:
* Un-installe your capture software AND drivers
* reset your video card to Standard VGA, THEN,
* un-install your Video card drivers, ie if its ATI or NVid, etc.
* should be set to Standard VGA mode
* reboot
* follow your Graphics card manual for proper instllation order (usually
have to select Cancel when your PC reboots, as some software (like mine)
requires that I skip the auto sense/install mode of graphics drivers)
* then, load in your CD drivers for your graphics card
* reboot after you install them, cause you want to make sure you system
sets for variables and reg.'s
* then set your display ie, Color; resolution etc.
* then begin the installation of your capture cards drivers
* then installed the capture cards software capture app, NOT app first.

but you may not have to go this route - just in case though, I've laid out
a road map for ya.
