Connecting a TV antenna to the tuner card
A tuner card has a TV antenna input just like the regular television monitor. Plug
your TV antenna to the TV connector of the tuner card.
Connecting the capture or tuner card to the sound card
Most capture and tuner cards only allow video capture. To preview the audio from
your video device or TV and to capture the audio into your computer, you need to
connect the audio output of the capture or tuner card to the sound card's Line In
port. The required cables for connecting to the sound card are different for each
type of video source.
Checking the hardware setup
After connecting your analog source to the capture or tuner card, check if the card
is detected by your Windows system.
To check if the capture or tuner card is detected:
1. If you are using a video device such as a camcorder as your source, insert your
videotape into the video device and switch it on. Make sure it is in the playback
mode (usually named VTR or VCR).
2. Open the Control Panel, then open System: Hardware - Device Manager.
3. In the Device Manager, double-click Sound, video and game controllers.
Check if your capture or tuner card is listed in this folder.
4. If your capture or tuner card has been detected properly, it will be listed as a
source device in DVD MovieFactory. Select the Capture Step and check if your
capture or tuner card is displayed under the Source list in the Options Panel.
