I have an adapter with AV input on one end and a 3.5 mm jack on the other. Is it possible to plug the 3.5 mm jack into audio in and view the AV signal going in?

I've been trying to use the Analogue video capture device on VLC, but can't get it to read from audio in. Some answers to similar questions say that the physical hardware can't read the third channel, if that's the case, is there any way I could play video from one of the audio channel.

    Audio channel is not video channel.

  • But wouldn't the analogue signal be readable regardless? What's the difference between the two?

    Audio bandwidth ~20kHz. Analogue video bandwidth ~4.5 MHz, ~50x beyond audio! It would be like expecting to keep up with F1 race cars on a tricycle.

  • That's a shame. Thanks for clearing that up. Is it completely impossible, or does it work while looking terrible.

  • @jkozaka, it depends on the width of the bus: grist.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/alg_mark-malkoff1.jpg
