Members Anesthesia Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 I just got a new laptop and mostly everything is great EXCEPT I cannot get AV to interface with it. It is an 'Asus Entertainment Notebook, A7series'. On the left side of the case it has a section to input a TV antenna (works fine with windows media center) as well as an 'AV input'. There is an adapter that plugs into this input. There are three RCA jacks and an S-video socket on the other side of this adapter. Any tips on what I am meant to do to get AV to interface with this? Do i need a special program that has not been bundled with the computer? Thanks for any help guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranjaman Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 Are the jacks color coded ? If so, yellow is composite video, the red and white are your stereo audio jacks (white= left/mono, red=right).The S-video is, well, video. (slightly better quality than the composite) What are you trying to interface with ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rummy Posted August 27, 2007 Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 Define AV interface. My guess is the adaptor is for Video IN? You'll probably need the software to receive data through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried to interface it with a DV camera, as well as with a VCRDVD player and a TV. It is definitely AV IN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be something to receive the signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Anesthesia Posted August 27, 2007 Author Members Share Posted August 27, 2007 Do you have any video recording software installed ? I've tried to receive the signal with windows movie maker, windows media center and the ASUS video client that was bundled. Any recommendations on the software I should use?
