I've searched the forums, this site, the guides and have no luck still on how to capture shows, etc. off the TV onto my digital camcorder. My camcorder by the way is the Panasonic PV-GS50S (http://catalog2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ModelDetail?storeId=11251&catalogId=11005&modelNo=PV-GS50S). It came with this cable that has the 3 pronged (red, white, and yellow) tips for the audio and video at one end and at the other end of the cable end it has a plug for S-Video which pops into a hole in my camcorder. I am hoping that I could record stuff off the TV onto the Mini DV cassettes in my camcorder. I have tried already putting the 3 prongs into the back of my TV and the S-Video cable end into my camcorder, put the cam on VCR mode, and then pressing the red 'Record' button, but the camera doesn't do anything. It doesn't beep, it doesn't whirr or what not. It sits there like nothing happened. So.. I am not sure what I should do. I know this can work..
