If the PVR-500MCE is like the PVR-250 it has a 1/8" audio input jack. Use an adapter to convert the player's RCA audio output to 1/8" and plug it into the PVR card. Your captured video should include audio. I hope this doesn't totally miss the question.
I have been trying for many days to capture analog video from a VCR using a PVR-250 and any software I can find, on Linux or Windows. (VLC and mencoder on Linux). The only thing that has worked so far is Hauppauge WinTV v6 on Windows. Can't make anything work on Linux. Please post your results for those of us struggling Thanks, Peter On Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 2:46 PM, Tony Ross <[email protected]>wrote: > Hello, we'd like to use the S-video input to get the best image quality > from the VHS player into the Hauppauge PVR-500MCE.
