Capturing audio from VCR

[Guest]

I have my VCR attached to the front of my HP Media Center PC with
red/white/yello cables. In Windows Movie Maker, I can capture Video but not
audio. Can't this PC capture both from a VCR or analog Video Camera?

You need to set teh audio capture sewttings to wahtever is connected to the
front of your media centre, I assume it's a sattelite form the sound card so
choose this option.
Otherwise you should have had another app for analogue capture with the pc,
use this.
Lastly, the front connections can lead to problems, so try the rear ones as
well.

The options in Windows Movie Maker for Video/Audio Capture are:
AUDIO DEVICE - "Line in/Mic in" or "Realtec HD Digital Input", and
AUDIO INPUT SOURCE - "Line in 1 or 2", "CD Player", Microphone", or "Stereo
Mix".
With the Red and White cables from the VCR I tried "Line in" and "Line in 1
02 2" and "Stereo Mix". Neither worked.
Any ideas?

Have you set the corresponding input as live in the sound mixer?
