Hi Victor. If you don't have a line in jack it may be a little more complicated. The mike input is very low level and chances are the line level from the VCR will overload the mike input. An attenuator is necessary to keep it from overloading. Also, is the program material in stereo? A mike input is mono so you will lose the stereo effect. Hope this helps.
Cats and Women will do as they please. Dogs and men should get over it. Regards. Max. K 4 O D S.
