Capture from VCR via DV Camcorder and save in AVI

Hi,
I tried to capture home video on my old analog tape via a DV camcorder to my computer using I-Link wire. I can see the image on the computer when I paly back my tape in VCR, but when I start to capture (I want to capture in AVI format), the message says that there is no tape in the camcorder, so I am unable to do the job. Could anyone kindly provide solutions? Thanks a lot!

movie maker does not specifically support pass through. You need to use a
capture app, supplied free by M/S. Go to www.papajohn.org and look up pass
through, where links and instructions will be given
