How to watch line in source?

[tankd0g]

I do not have a channel switcher yet so I just watch through my PVR-350 what my satelite tuner puts out through the S-Video. How can I pick up this feed with GB-PVR? I can't find anything that says line in or video, it just keeps asking for channel listings.

Its really all designed around channels, so probably wont be that useful without them. You can probably fake it though using the 'Add Channel' option for the capture source you setup (which should be setup to use SVideo input).

I have tried this but there doesn't seem to be any way to tell the software to use the s-video in instead of the coaxial in.  I can't really experiment much with different channels because as soon as I change the channel twice the computer locks up.

Is there a certain channel on a PVR-350 that is the "line-in" ?

Ah so simple! Please move this one to the FAQ for stupid people like me! Now I will get on with the testing, it was crashing when I changed channels with static on them, maybe all that movement was too much for the encoder. I only have a AMD Duron 1300. Now that I don't ahve to change channels it's staying up.
