I have an SAA7130 TV Video Capture Card. I can not get the audio line-in to work. I know I can get audio through the microphone, but the audio doesn't always match the mouth movement. I am running on Windows XP, what can I do to get that to work? |

Make sure the line in is not muted and the volume (in the settings) isn't turned down. |

Thanks, all of those settings are as you say. I spoke with someone else, and they wondered if it installed completley. They said they thought they heard that there was a problem with XP. Anyone know anything about that, or where I can find out about it? |

I think http://www.dscaler.org/ has a delay setting somewhere which you may be able to use to synch the audio and video. Truth be told, I preffered my BT 87x card over my SAA 7130 card. |

Was this the original Video card for this unit? There may be a software conflict between old software and the new install. |

How does your BT 87X work different from the SAA...? How much do they run, and where do you get one? As well, this unit never had a video capture card, I just purchased this one for it. I have an analog video camera that I need to hook up to, to capture video to make VCD's. Any other ideas? I really appreciate your input!!

I think pretty much everyone with sa7130 chip card have bad audio-video synch.
There's ms kb article about it, but at least the fix they offer didn't fix my issue.
The lack of synch is somewhat more noticeable on live feed than taped.
I just live with it  |

Thanks for your opinion! Where do I get the fix? I would like to try it anyway. |

First of all figure out what card you have there, and install the INTENDED software for it.
Then, if you're using the analog loop cable from the TV card straight into the sound chip's loopthrough, audio is always going to be delay-free. The video stream however, depending on how much deinterlacing and other trickery you apply to it, will have some delay, from one frame to quite a few. Audio will be "ahead of" video then.
The solution is to use the SAA713x chip's capability to feed audio through the PCI bus as well - that'll be perfectly in sync with the video feed through PCI. If your software of choice doesn't screw it back up, that is. |

I installed the software that came with it, so I guess I assumed it was the correct software. I am more concerned at this point about why the "line-in" isn't working. Any ideas? |
