We have Windows 7 running.

We have a video machine hooked up to the pc (vhs 2 pc), all works fine audio wise until we load up another video file on the computer. The audio mutes the vcr program recording and we can't retrieve the audio, the program records ok though.

How do we un-mute the audio for the vcr?

Win7 help isn't very good.

restarting audio device works but crashes software in use. baffled.

have you tried running the software in compatibility mode? often does the trick

[todd1970]

Sometimes software crashing could be due to a bad codec in the system , have you tried installing VLC player ?

i'll go up one day and do the things you suggested, would it be worth running it in win xp compatibility mode in win 7, or win 7 for win 7?

it has the kazaa lite codec pack on, would it be worth using another?

Im pretty sure i had issues with the Kazza codec package , a .dll file failing to initilize properly or summat when i looked into it.

Thing with VLC player it has 99.9% of codecs built into the installer , you would be hard pushed to find something it COULDNT play.

Hmmm... maybe that will stop the audio conflict!?

We didn't have this problem before so it sounds like a duff driver.

I will uninstall roxio driver and re-install with one I was linked to either on here or FF and see how it goes. I'll check whether or not I can run it XP compatibly mode, as it is an installer.

I'll run EZ video converter in xp mode and then load another audio file to see if it conflicts, if it does then it is something else.

Will report back this week at some time, busy week, got my Employment Tribunal on Friday lol.

All fixed now, run them in compatibility mode for xp and installed vlc player and all is fine.
