I used to be able to do that but now I can't. The TV window is up
and I can watch the video in it but the controlls are greyed out. I can
get into the setup, input selection and record button but everything
else is greyed out.
When I hit record, the little window that shows recording info never
pops up. It doesn't record.
This problem may well be related to the others I'm having.
The windows mixer control shows all volume levels to be up.
I cannot find a Soundblaster brand mixer. I remember an expanded
Windows mixer and a rather nice Soundblaster mixer but I cannot seem to
find them now. I cannot find the actual record level slider control.
I wonder if something didn't get installed. Most likely in Windows or
the sound card maybe.
An additional note, I said I had this all hooked up and working a few
years ago but that was on a Win98 machine. This time I have the same
physical computer but with WinXP. I have visited the ATI website for my
video driver update and the Soundblaster site for the updated drivers
for the sound card. It's a Soundblaster MP3 5+ or something like that.
I'll have to check on the MMC version.
