How to recorded file from VCR?
Please plug VCR Composite video
cable (yellow) into TV card yellow
connector which is on the S-Video to
Composite cable. Audio needs to
connect to the Line-In port of your
Sound card. You have to buy a
converter (see the right) to transfer
Composite Audio cable (red one and
white one) into stereo jack.
Make sure you choose “Your Sound card” to be the Audio device in the System

Why playback the recorded video has lags?
VideoMate PCI TV Tuner card needs CPU to do the encoding. Therefore, the
lags is due to CPU fails to encode in real time. Usually, VCD quality needs
about 900MHz CPU for recording while DVD quality needs about 1.7G CPU for
recording. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to check your CPU usage. If it reaches 100%,
then the lag is inevitable.
Why does the remote control fail?
The remote control sensor, which is plugged into the TV card, may be loose.
Please unplug it and plug it again. You should also check the batteries of the
remote control. Do not use rechargeable batteries.
Verify that the
IR icon (ComproRemote) is in the system tray on the
lower-right corner of the screen. If you don't have ComproRemote on the
system tray, start the following program:
