Connecting SONY Camcorder to the EasyCAP

I recently recieved a question regarding capturing videos from a camcorder. I have a SONY DCR-PC5E quite old now but i still have tapes with stuff i want to transfer to DVD, i still have the cable which came with the camcorder which i usually use to connect to the TV, this works with the easycap.

On your camcorder you should see similar to the picture below Audio/Video Out connect your cables to this port and the composite video cables to the Easycap. My handycam is PAL 50hz as standard so i got a picture immediately.

    Have a JVC Digital Video Recorder with same A/V output. When I connect to the the composite on the easycap i can capture the video portion of the recording but not the audio. Any hints?

    Okay, I’ve got a major problem:
    I lost my DVD with the support files, and switched to a new PC. What’s also disturbing, is that the day after I moved all my files from my old to my new one, except the plugins, and my old pc crashed. does anybody has a link where I can get an .iso, or just the support files? Thanks very much.

    Is my EasyCap Model # DC60 able to copy from VCR to DVD, in addition to copying from video cameras? I’ve tried doing so with RCA connectors as well as with SVideo cable & RCAs for audio, but so far have only been able to capture audio. Is it possible some settings I have or made are not correct?
    I have Version 2.1C Model DC60 w/USB 2.0 Video Adapter w/Audio.
    What settings should I be using that I may not be using?

    I have a viewcam video camera which ‘ve hooked up to the EasyCap I received in the mail a few days ago. I’ve tried every single possible combination for capturing a video, but can’t even get a signal. This item simply does not work.
