Capture from option missing...

[Kenny Mike]

I was having trouble earlier because I wasn't able to hear the LP as it recorded to my laptop but I was able to capture with either the video capture USB 2861 device or the input jack plugged into my microphone/line-in jack. Trying to resolve my 'hearing while recording' problem, I went online and bought DriverScanner from UniBlue. The tool found 5 old drivers and I let it do the update. Now when I go into the LP and Tape assistant the 'Capture from' drop-down doesn't see the USB device although my laptop knows it is there and "working properly". If I revert back to the mic/line jack, the sound clips off the charts and the auto tool does not do any adjustments... it opens and shows progress 0% and then just flicks off. I went into the knowledge base and found history of the problem and the fix was a new driver for the Video Capture USB... I've installed the driver and still no luck... hope one of you Gurus can give me some advice.

Thank you,

Ken

Wish you came here before spending $ on that!

 

What operating system are you running Creator 2009 on?

 

Are you sure you have C2009 software?

OK... now it is going to look like I'm talking to myself... and I am... I found a 'roll back to old driver' option... did that... and now Roxio recognizes the USB 2861 Capture Device... but... the auto tool appears to be adjusting the levels... but on playback all that is going into my laptop is an extremely loud buzzing sound and no music... the $80 I spent on this software is really starting to look cheap when compared to the personal hours it is taking my to get it up and running!!! I had Roxio 7 on an old desktop and never had these problems...

I'm on Vista Home Basic SP2

 

I got my C2009 SE at Sam's... it came with two discs... an installation DVD and the Roxio Video Capture USB CD

My Bad... the radical static was because I switched the AC adapter on the phono pre-amp unit I'm using... I'm almost good to go... I just need to find a proper ground to get rid of the minor his I'm getting...

Sorry for the crazy posts... the stock market is also messing with my head!
