I have been trying to copy some VHS video onto my PC.

I have a dazzle DV 80 usb thing that has the 3 composite connectors (2 audio
1 video) and also a S-Video connector.

I bought a SCART lead today that goes SCART to 1 S-Video and 2 composite
Audio connectors.

When I try and capture video, I have some problems. The audio is fine but I
get probs with the video.

The video quality looks pale and washed out with no colour. It also looks
like its not tuned in properly - its hard to explain.

Does anyone know of any reasons why, or where I can look for help

THanks

Simon

Is the VHS tape PAL or NTSC?
