Capturing Video
This section explains how to capture video from an analog source, such as a camcorder,
VCR, or TV, so you can edit the video and create special effects on your computer. You’ll
learn how to set up the DVC 100 for analog video input, which is conver ted into DVD
compatible video (MPEG-2) for use on your computer.
Connecting Video Input
To connect your camcorder, VCR, or TV to the DVC 100 to capture DVD quality video, follow
these steps:
1.
Connect one end of the RCA (composite) video cable (yellow) or S-video cable (black)
to the corresponding Video Out connector on the camcorder, VCR, or TV.
S-video provides a higher quality video capture than composite video and should be
used if your camcorder, VCR, or TV has an S-Video output.
Note:
Some TVs do not have Video Out connectors. For specific details, check the
documentation included with your TV.
2.
Connect the other end of the video cable to the corresponding Video In connector on
front of the DVC 100.
Note:
Some camcorders do not have connectors for standard video cables, which are
included with the DVC 100. If your camcorder is not compatible with the supplied
cables, use the cables that were included with the camcorder.
3.
Connect one end of the RCA audio cable (red and white) to the Audio Out connectors
on the camcorder, VCR, or TV.
Note:
If your device only suppor ts mono output, you need to use a Y-adapter.
4.
Connect the other end of the RCA audio cable to the Audio In connectors on the front
of the DVC 100.
