Record tv to camcorder?

How do I record images through my hd tv to my camcorder.?

  • I have a Sony SR11 Handycam and I am trying to record images from My TV.My Tv is the Samsung LNA650 I have hooked up the AV cables from my camera to my tv and all im allowed to do is project images from my camera to my tv. I also have the mini hdmi cable and also it only allows me to project images to my tv. I need to record whats playing on my tv. I am trying to record gameplay videos of me playing xbox 360 and playstation 3. I know there is a way to do this but I cant figure it out. I also dont want to aim the camera at the tv because tons of video quality will be lost that way. Is this possible?

  • Answer:

    Try from your VCR or cable box (LINE OUT) using the "red, white, yellow" cable to the camcorder input.

As you have found, TV's generally do not do AV-OUT. They do AV-in. You need to get some "Y" cables so the same signal that comes from the xbox goes to the camcorder AND the TV. The Y cables connect to the xbox... one side goes to the TV... the other side goes to a video capture. Download your camcorder's manual here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-documents.pl?mdl=HDRSR11 Since the SR11 does not do AV-in, you cannot do what you want to do. Most consumer camcorders - especially the hard drive and high definition units - do not have the AV-in feature...
