Anyone have tips on recording from tv or dvd?

[Relic]

Does anyone have any suggestions for recording from the TV or DVD without getting that annoying tv"Buzz"
Ive tried going direct thru adapter cables but it doesnt help at all...
Just wondering...

 

[open mind]

to get a clean sound as possible from tv i recommend you a TV CARD for pc.
to record from dvd just put the dvd in your dvd-rom and record the audio from your soundcard with a soundeditor of your choice.

Yeah see the problem is that I dont have a soundcard its just the digidesign.
So I guess I may need to look into gettin one..
Will it compete with the digi rack I wonder?

Any other ideas?

shouldn't you be able to come out of the dvd player with RCA cables and into the ALT SRC input on the rack?

this is how i do it, and the shit come out perfect, i got a rca male to 1/4 inch female jack adaptor pluged in the audio out of the vcr,a regulAR quarter inch instrument cable plugged into the adaptor,and the other side of that cable pluged into one of the mono inputs on my mmixer, then just go video and audio out of yur dvd player into the audio video in on the vcr,this way u can record tv when the vcr is on ch 3, u can record vhs when u put a tape in,and u can record dvd audio when yur vcr is on channel ''video'' or ''aux''. shits like mad gangster kid.<boston talk for its pretty cool

You boys are all way off here, you don't need nuthin' to record from a DVD, just put it in your computer and use a DVD audio ripping application. Just google for DVD audio ripper, choose your platform and that's it. You can preview the film to the point you need, then extract the audio as a .wav, .aiff or .mp3 (plus loads of others like SD2 etc) for the duration you need it.

It's simple and quick and gives you 100% digital quality, exactly as you hear it on the original.

To record from TV, as others have said, get a tuner card/usb device for your computer and record directly in, or if not, buy a SCART box (really cheap) with RCA connectors and go from there to your sound in. The audio goes from the TV to the SCART box, then to your computer via the RCA plugs. Easy. Not 100% but not far off.

If you need specific apps for Mac or PC let me know. If you actually want them, PM me to discuss...
