Capturing video from camcorder

[h8dk97]

I've been trying to use my graphics card ABIT R9600XT VIO for capturing video from Sony camcorder but it doesn't seem to work. Is it because this caputure card is not supported?

What I did is:

1. I connected the camcorder to the graphics card via svideo cable, audio into the sound card
2. setup a new source and new channel lineup
3. started playing the tape on the camcorder and play in sagetv live tv guide.
All I got was a blank screen.

I can connect camcorder to one of the tuners but would prefer them to only do tv recording.

Thanks in advance.

your best bet is to use something other than sage for that kind of capture. Also I don't know if that card is supported by sage 2.X... And software cards in 3.X are still a bit flaky.
