you need to plug them into the "Line In" jack.

if you plug them into the "Mic In", the signal will be boosted and probably distorted, as that connection expects a much lower signal than the line-level signal your VHS will put out.

Line-in. Also, make sure it's un-muted in your mixer control.

Something to remember, jsut because you hear it from your speakers during capture, doesn't mean it's being recorded. Do some short tests to get your sound levels set first!
