How to Setup Capture Source for S-Video/Composite on ATI Theater 550 PRO?

[al1suarez]

Besides having a TV tuner my ATI Theater 550 PRO has S-Video/Composite inputs. How do I configure Capture Source for ATI's S-Video/Composite? I basically want to connect my VCR to the Composite of the ATI 550 Pro. I imaging that I can assign an unused channel to Capture source Composite but I don't know how to configure the Capture Source.

in gbpvr config, you can add another capture source. under direct recording configuration change the source to whatever you are using, composite or s-video external tuner. that should do it. don't think you can assign a channel to it, but someone else can answer that for you.

Under Direct Recording the only options displayed are S-Video External and Composite External. When I pick Composite External, nothing happens at all, I get is a blank screen. I had to assign a single channel to this source in order to see it GBPVR-LiveTV. Still no go.

Does anyone have S-Video/Composite working in GBPVR with their ATI Theater 550 PRO?

It works for me. I have a cable box connected to the composite using the red-white-yellow cables. Works perfectly.

What are your settings in "Capture Source"?

I just checked on my ATI 550. All I had to do was set the source to 'Composite, external tuner'.

I am so sorry guys. I actually had the cable connected to my video card, which has the tv tuner disabled, instead of my active tv tuner card. I'll pay more attention next time before posting.
