How to record from S-Video/Composite?

How do I record from S-Video/Composite from my ATI TV Wonder Elite using GB-PVR?

I think there should be an option to switch between sources from GB-PVR right?

Thanks guys.

It depends what you're trying to do. If you want to dub tapes, or watch ps2/xbox games, then you're better off using some other software.

If you want to connect a external cable/satellite box to the composite or svideo connector on your capture card, then setup a new capture source, configure for the card and composite or svideo source. Setup the EPG and IR Blaster and you're away...

Thanks for your quick reply.

The PowerCinema3 software that came with my capture card doesn't have the option to switch between TV/S-Video/Composite so I was just hoping I could watch videos from my video camera. so...

I created a new 2nd capture source, configured for the ATI TV Wonder Elite card and composite as source. Set the EPG to "none" and Channel Changer to "No Channel Changer Required". However, I don't see how in GBPVR I can change to this 2nd Source. So how do I switch to my new source from GBPVR?

You'd need to manually add a channel. Call it something like 'AV1' or 'Svideo' or similar, then it'll show up as a channel when you're in live tv.
