Hi,

I am a newbie so please be gentle.

I am trying to capture either video or satellite using a Canopus ADVC-110 analog-to-digital convertor.

I am using component video & audio interconnects (£25 ones at that) from the av-out on my akai CBR-5800Di (dvd recorder/vcr) to the Canopus ADVC-110.

When using component video & audio connections i get these white lines at the top of the picture which look like a timeline or a representation of sound on a seperate track.

When using component outs on my JVC DV-Cam to the Canopus convertor though there are no white lines.

Anyone have any idea what the lines are, why they are there and most importantly how do i get rid of them?

I have tried using the Canopus Let's Convert program that came with the product, the view inside My Computer from dbl-clicking the removeable device, and the capture program that came with Sony Vegas 5.0 and the white lines are present in all instances.

Thanks
