Audio Bleeps / Blotches

[Jer3784]

I bought this product and finally set it up. The product works fine, but every time I record I get these 1 second bleeps in the transfer. They almost sound like a 1 second robot wave. I know it isn't glitches in the VHS tapes, as I can replay the same section of the tape, and the bleep will appear in a different part every time.

 

Could this be due to me going straight from VCR to PC, rather than VCR to TV and then from TV to PC?

Any idea what the issue might be?

I just want to confirm that when you connected a output from your old TV (your post #17) into the Roxio unit the Picture and Sound were ok. Is that correct?

[Jer3784]

Is there a means for fixing this? I would hate to go out and buy another unit, just to see the same thing happen.

So, you connected an output from your old TV, and that worked okay? No extraneous noises in the capture? Then you've pretty well proven that the capture device is good, and that the problem is with your VCR. And that would make sense that the sounds you're getting occur in different spots on the tape if you rewind. It's not the tape, it sounds like it's the VCR.

I have tried my old TV. I had no issues on that, but the built in VCR eats up tapes, so I wasn't about to try doing that. I tried another VCR, but that only gave me sound out of one channel.

So.. Go out and buy another VCR, and if it doesn't work return it? I am still confused about the source. The one I am using is an almost brand new unit, that had been sitting in the box for most of the years I had it.

 

I will look to change that setting. How do I go about updating individual drivers?

 

No don't be silly.

 

Anything that has Composite or S-Video and White/Red audio is what you want. That could be a DVD Player, a BD Player or even your DVR

 

Do you have any of those things so you can try it?

I would set your DPI at 100% when using Roxio programs.

 

Update your Video and Audio drivers.

Here it is.

Yes a different VCR would be nice, any device with a Composite output (Yellow/Red/White RCA cord) eg Camcorder/DVD player.

[Jer3784]

In my way out for the day. I will take a look at those threads tonight.

 

What do you mean by a different source? As in a different VCR? This is the only VCR I have where I was able to get a right and left channel audio.

[Jim_Hardin]

Need that DirectX file cd asked for.

 

Have you tried it with a different source?

[Jer3784]

Through the TV the bleeps do not happen.

[ogdens]

Does it happen using other tapes?. Do the tape(s) play ok when connected directly into the TV?.

It is a basic AV Out three prong (red, white, yellow) from the back of the unit to the Roxio, Roxio to the USB. Picture is fine and 98% audio is fine. Just this minor issue I am looking to fix.

Tell us HOW you have got your VCR hooked up to the Roxio unit ( cables), describe in detail ?.
