Hello,
I'm trying to use my SilverCrest acquisition key, but when I click on the Director software and then on the capture tab, the "audio device" symbol appears, and I can't click on the "capture from a TV" symbol.
If anyone can help me
Thanks in advance

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 87.0.4280.88

    Hello,
    We are several regular contributors on the forum warning you, in light of the desperate messages from internet users, about using this type of "cheap" 4-wire key purchased online:
    however, there are "tutorials" on YouTube made by people who have apparently managed to get this equipment working, check them out

    For our part, we only recommend the "Dazzle" box, reliable, well-known, and widespread, delivered complete with editing software and compatible with Windows 10, but it costs around €60

    And you can resell it once the job is done on eBay or Le Bon Coin

      Hello, a question you never know, we use this key to try to transfer analog files from tape recorders or cameras. How did you connect your key to a TV, as analog outputs like RCA yellow plugs have become rare on TVs?
