If these connections are used, then the sound will have
to be transferred with a separate cable (red/white
connections).
These cables will have to be connected to the line-in on
the sound card or (if available) the video card. You may
require an adapter.
Adapter cables are often included to enable connection
from video recorders a SCART.
Due to the variety of device configurations, it is difficult to say which cable will
function best with your setup. If you’re not sure, check the manual of your VCR or
your TV, video, or graphics cards.
Example: Many VCRs and DVD players have a Scart, 3 RCA (2 for stereo sound, 1 for
video), or S-Video and optical audio outs. In such cases, you will need a SCART to
RCA adapter, a cable with 3 RCA jacks, or even possibly an S-Video cable.

Most sound card inputs are 3.5 mini stereo jacks. To connect the VCR audio out to
the sound card audio in you will need a stereo RCA/ mini phono plug adapter. You
will most likely have to buy a cable with 3 RCA plugs and a stereo cinch/mini jack
adapter from your local supplier.
Note: Most video converters record both image and sound. This kind of converter
can usually be found in the online store at www.magix.com.
