Connecting a Camcorder or

Other NTSC Device to Your

Video Capture Card

In addition to the NTSC camera included with your capture card, you can connect any NTSC compliant device to the video capture card. In this manner, you could hook up a camcorder, VCR, laserdisc player, or other NTSC video device. You should consult the device’s manual for specific information about connecting the device to a source other than a television. The device must be NTSC compliant to be used with this product.

If your device is NTSC compliant, you should be able to run an RCA male to RCA male cable from the device’s video out jack to the capture card’s video in (yellow) jack. Please
