TRYING TO TRANSFER VHS and CASSETTE TAPES INTO THE LAPTOP

[Massini]

Hi all. I need to digitize family cassettes and VHS. I have the software and equip,ment to do all that. However, with regards to the transfer of the cassette tapes to the computer, it is not possible to record any sound whatsoever. Maybe the problems rests on the single jack, I don;'t know. Any idea about where to connect the external equipment into the notebook? A similar issue happens with the video transfer, that is, in this case you hear the sound of the video but there is no image at all. Very strange. Exactly the same problems happen in my second laptop (HP Laptop PC 17-by4000).

Thanks in advance for any clues you may come up with. Martin
