Attention! -Connecting Audio to the TV Card
In attaching external devices through the Video-in or SVHS-In ports, you should note, that only
video signals (and not sound) can be transmitted over these two ports. For this reason, you
will need a second cable connection, which goes from the audio-out ports of the external
device to the Line-In input of your sound card. If you don't set up this connection, it won't be
possible to record a video sequence with sound from the external device.
The audio connection can be made most easily using an audio extension cord, which you can
find in any electronics store (see the following illustration). In addition, you will need a so-
called y-cable, an extension cable which has two cinch plugs on one end and a mini-jack plug
on the other.

Audio Extension Cord
Y-Cable
Proceed with the installation of the audio connection as follows:
1. Plug in the two male cinch plugs of the audio extension cord to the audio-out ports of the
external device.
2. Connect the two female cinch plugs of the audio extension cord with the y-cable.
3. Plug the mini-jack plug of the y-cable into the Line-In input of your sound card.
Important!
Make sure this audio connection is complete if you want to record a video sequence with
sound from your external device. Also, take a look at the topic Important Settings, to be sure
that your sound card is correctly installed for the recording of a video sequence with sound.
