Connecting the WinTV board to a Sound Card
The WinTV board's audio output should be connected to a sound card
using the supplied Audio Cable
:
- plug one end of the Audio Cable into the jack marked LineOut
( Audio Line Out jack ) on the back panel bracket of the WinTV
board
- plug the other end of the Audio Cable into your soundcard’s
LineIn jack.
Most sound cards have three round jacks on the out-
side of the PC. They are: Microphone Input, Audio
Output and Line Input. The Audio Output would go to
your speakers, while the Microphone input might go to a micro-
phone (if you are using one). The LineIn jack is normally a blue
connector, and is indicated on the sound card by the words IN or
LineIn stamped into the metal bracket on the outside of your PC.
This is where you would plug your
WinTV Audio Cable.
Adjusting the Audio Volume
Once the audio cable is connected to your Sound Card, the WinTV
application can change the audio volume coming from the
WinTV
board by adjusting the LineInput sound volume of the
VolumeControl program in Windows.
The VolumeControl program is normally installed with Windows or
by the sound card installation program, and allows the control of vol-
ume from the various sound sources. If you cannot hear sound when
running the
WinTV application, you might need to check the volume
level of LineInput in VolumeControl
.
The VolumeControl application is started by clicking either:
Programs/Accessories/Multimedia/VolumeControl
or
Start/Programs/Accessories/Entertainment/VolumeControl
