To capture from a VCR, one needs a Video Capture Device, such as a Pinnacle Moviebox or Dazzle. I use the Moviebox USB device and it works quite well. The VCR plugs into it with composite connections, then it is attached to a USB port on the computer. PD7 detects it in the Capture mode.

I have also used the Dazzle a couple of times on a friend's machine. No probs there either.

These are both external devices, there are also internal devices, however, I don't have experience with them to offer.

can anybody help , i use a dazzle dvc 100 and record videos on cyberlink pd7 but it doesnt record sound ! anybody know whats wrong?

Hi george,

Is your Sound and Audio Properties Device Settings, in the Windows Control Panel, set to “USB Device”, when you use your Dazzle?

Start > Control Panel > Sound and Audio Devices > Audio > Sound Recording (assure it is set to “USB” device) > OK
- You may also need to...
Start > Control Panel > Sound and Audio Devices > Audio > Sound Playback (assure it is set to “USB” device) > OK
- You can also try to do this in the Voice tab to be double sure that all audio from a USB device is being recognized
- Remember to switch these settings back to where they were. Especially if you use a microphone a lot.

This may not pertain to your particular problem, but it works for me when I use either my video or audio USB devices.
