Black screen when attempting to use Composite input

[CMoH]

Hey. I'm trying to move the family video collection from old analogue cameras to digital media. This camera has a Composite audio+video that works fine with a TV box.

With Media TV Pro I have successfully installed the drivers and everything, so I can see TV input on the computer. However, when connecting the camera and switching to Composite input I get a black screen and no audio. My personal opinion is that the MediaTV Pro Composite cable I have (see picture) is not appropriate.

Can anybody confirm if the cable in the picture is appropriate for capturing media via the Composite input? If not, what can I do?

This cable is not okay - it's not the one which we ship with our units, there is no standard for the S-Video/Composite Pinout - we have defined our own one.
You will need a cable from us in order to get that work.

Thank you for your reply. I'll write an email to the address you gave me.

As a side question, would you happen to know what the cable in the picture can be used for? Also, since it came in the box with the MediaTV Pro, I am wondering why you're saying it is not shipped with your units.

Hi,

this is not our cable. Our cables are shorter. We have never shipped such long cables.

I don't know what the cable in your picture can be used with.

Those devices are around 6-7 years old and not manufactured anymore, though they are still supported by our drivers.

It seems there was a mix-up with the cable of a camera, whose plug coincidentally matched MediaTV Pro.

Well, I'll close this, since the confusing matter was resolved. Thank you for your help!
