| 441604 | 2006-03-29 03:47:00 | Hi! I have a problem, and hopefully you guys can help me.... Basically, I watch quite a lot of real player video files (don't ask me the source).. I watch that using a old computer, but it is connected to a Sharp LCD TV, which accepts VGA signals (or whatever you call the external monitor signal coming from the laptop)... So basically, I can watch real player video files, full screen on my TV. Is there any way, to record whatever I'm watching on TV then, to a VCR recorder / DVD recorder? Using the TV Out signal connected to my VCR, I manage to only record the audio on a tape, but not the image signal? Is there any way to record the image signal as well??? Thanks! |

| 441606 | 2006-03-29 12:47:00 | The source is just a computer, playing real player files... Basically: Computer (Playing real player video on screen) -> Showing on LCD TV (it has a monitor input jack, and a RGB TV out jack). Is there any way to "capture" the audio and video showing on the TV? So I just want to record, audio+video, whatever is showing on the TV (kinda like screen capture), in a VCR / DVD format. I have luck with the audio, but none with the video. |

| 441608 | 2006-03-30 10:29:00 | But the problem is, for my computer, it only has a "external computer monitor output" (do you call that a VGA jack)? My LCD TV can read that signal fine, so I can watch it on the TV as it has a VGA input jack . But how can I transfer that onto a VCR? Thanks so much! |

| 441609 | 2006-03-30 10:55:00 | Oh, well in that case finding a graphics card with S-Video connection out is probably the best way to do it. | bob_doe_nz (92) | ||
